About the Burned Children Recovery Foundation
The Burned Children Recovery Foundation is a non-profit organization of dedicated staff and caring volunteers who are committed to effectively supporting burn children survivors and their families during the rehabilitation process. To date we have distributed over 103,000 recovery packets to burned children after fire and burns have changed their lives forever.
There are thousands of burned children survivors and their parents that receive recovery information from the Burned Children Recovery Foundation each year since 1990. They are badly scarred and emotionally and physically in need of the BCRF's support. Many have lost fingers, ears, faces and their spirit to live. But no matter how severe or slight their burn scars are, all require assistance in making difficult changes from being a victim to a survivor and a well adjusted, thriving member of society. The children and their families need emotional and spiritual support after burns/scars have changed their lives forever.
We provide counseling and financial aid to the child and their family, because after they leave the hospital many mistakes are made by the parents. This will slow down the recovery of the child or turn the child into a recluse, hidden from the world. This is why our services are so important to the recovery of the child.
Burns are one of the most painful injuries to recover from. We offer support and encouragement during and after hospitalization. When does the healing start? Reconstructive surgery will play a role in the child's overall post burn restoration process, but it is the area on the body affected and the percentage of total burned tissue that will play the largest role in how fast they will recover.
