A New Life for Kwesi Nimoh

While looking through some random photos of groups of village children, we discovered a picture that included an 11-year old boy with a deformed cleft palate upper lip.  He had never attended school because of his appearance and he did not play with other kids.  With the assistance of Bucks County Chapter of Links, Inc., arrangements were made with an organization called "Operation Smile" in Kumasi and Dr. Peter Donkor.   In December 2008, successful surgery was performed to give little Kwesi Nimoh a new life.
