Helping Hands Surgical Care of Las Vegas

Thanks to Helping Hands Surgical Care (HHSC), 10 medically necessary surgeries were performed at no cost to the patients on our inaugural Charity Surgery Day. These surgeries restored quality of life and ended years of struggle with pain and debilitating medical conditions for individuals who often fall between the cracks.

To date, we've received more than 200 applications and 10 additional qualified patients, who lack insurance and meet the financial and medical requirements, are anxiously waiting for surgery. HHSC can perform these 10 surgeries for only $35,000 – that's an average of only $3,500 each. That's because our doctors receive no pay and we work with medical facilities and other providers to secure the lowest possible fees.

With your help, we can give the gift of health to help our fellow Nevadans get back to work in the new year.

Any size donation will help you be part of the solution to ensure uninsured Nevadans with no other options can return to work, support their families and enjoy life. Even a gift of $100 will cover laboratory services for a patient.

We invite you to join us and the many doctors and medical providers who have already committed to performing charity surgeries on an ongoing basis through HHSC. To make a donation, please contact NCF. 

Wishing you a happy and healthy holiday season.
