Welcome to Gift of Life Midsouth

The Gift of Life Midsouth by Rotary 6800

Gift of Life Midsouth is a Rotary based program which provides lifesaving surgery to children who suffer from congenital heart defects. These children come from third world countries that lack the facilities and expertise to perform this life saving surgery. The Rotary Clubs in district 6800 provide support for the parents and child while they are in Memphis by providing housing, transportation, meals, and other daily tasks. LeBonheur Children’s Medical Center provides the necessary medical care to the child. 

Gift of Life Midsouth's first child came to Memphis in October of 2007.  To date 23 children have had life saving surgery -- thank you LeBonheur.

Event - Memphis Star, a sing competion, was held on Thursday November 17th at the Rose Theater on the U of M Campus.  It was a great success and we look forward to having having it again next year.  Go To www.Memphisstar.org 

 December 24, 2011 -- Franklin and Esperanza (grandmother) will be home in time for Christmas.  Franklin got a "clean-bill-of-health" on Wednesday and is going home to Honduras.  What a wonderul Christmas gift - "the gift of life".
