No organization can solve complex health challenges alone. We are proud to partner with esteemed organizations to expand our reach and enhance the quality of care provided to every child. These institutional partnerships are the foundation of our multidisciplinary approach to cleft care.
Cleft Care Foundation (CCF) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Pakistan Association of Orthodontists (PAO) to establish a formal framework for academic and professional collaboration in cleft care and orthodontics.

Under this agreement, both organizations will collaborate on the organization of symposia, conferences, workshops, and training programs related to cleft care and orthodontics, supporting continuing professional education and capacity building.
The partnership also encourages research collaboration where mutually beneficial and supports the exchange of expertise and resources to strengthen professional development in the field. PAO will facilitate CCF’s engagement with a wider professional audience through its network of orthodontic specialists.
CCF will contribute by proposing academic programs, providing subject matter experts and resource persons, and supporting awareness and advocacy initiatives related to cleft care.

Cleft Care Foundation (CCF) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Bashir Institute of Health Sciences (BIHS), Islamabad, to strengthen collaboration in patient referral, community awareness, and student-led outreach initiatives related to cleft lip and palate care.

CCF will provide subsidized or free treatment to referred patients in accordance with its policies.
The partnership also focuses on community awareness and outreach, including the organization of cleft awareness and screening camps in Barakahu and surrounding areas. BIHS will support these initiatives by providing medical personnel, educational resources, and logistical assistance, while CCF will offer cleft-specific training and technical guidance.
In addition, BIHS will facilitate the formation of a Cleft Care Volunteer Group, engaging dental students and volunteers in awareness sessions, patient identification, and outreach programs. CCF will provide training, orientation, and certificates of appreciation to participating volunteers.
