Mission Statement
Education is the cornerstone to improving access to healthcare for all Mongolians.
Home to just 3.5 million people spread across vast landscapes, Mongolia is the world’s most sparsely populated country — where distance and isolation make access to healthcare a daily challenge for many.
Geography, great distances, a harsh environment and lack of roads create significant barriers to providing care. The advantage, however, is that a small population makes this goal realistic.
Our projects can and have made a difference. Eliminating/reducing barriers is accomplished through education and bringing care to the Mongolians, regardless of where they live.
Our mission is to deliver world-class medical and surgical care while training the next generation of health professionals, bringing lasting vision and hope to All Mongolians.
Teaching is the cornerstone of the project and the team’s experienced surgeons and nurses reflect this commitment. Working alongside and under the guidance of our Mongolian healthcare colleagues ensures that the projects that we undertake are in the best interests of the Mongolian patients. Long-term commitment from both parties is a requirement.
“We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.”
— Winston Churchill
How we Work
There are no employees at Laurel Surgical Foundation, nor are the Mongolian Mission Team Members paid. All participants volunteer their time freely with no expectation of compensation.
Self-funded team members and support of Canadian Medical resources enable us to maintain the flexibility to best meet the needs of the Mongolian healthcare community.
Give the gift of healing and skills that last a lifetime.
