Our Volunteers
Healing the Children Rocky Mountains is a 100% volunteer organization. We are a tax exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. There are no paid staff and all services provided are possible through the generous donations of time, money, and skills. This includes our medical teams who donate their vacation time and often pay for all of their own expenses to provide free care to children. There are three ways people can help.

Our History
Healing the Children Rocky Mountains
Healing the Children was formed in 1979. Today there are 15 chapters spread across the United States. Healing the Children Rocky Mountains was formed in 2014 and is the newest Chapter. It was noticed that there are so many people who want to make a difference in the world and help children, but often just need a vehicle to allow them to serve. The Rocky Mountains Chapter is focused on bringing together teams of volunteers from Colorado and Utah to provide free care to children around the globe and around the corner in our own communities.
Founders Ann and Dr. Ryan Brown

The Rocky Mountains Chapter started with Dr. Ryan and Ann Brown, a married couple from Denver who decided they want to spend their lives giving back to others and helping children. After participating in two amazing missions to Peru through Healing the Children Northeast, they decided to start a local chapter of Healing the Children to provide a way for volunteers in the Rockies to get involved with such important work. That desire and vision has spread to many in Colorado and Utah as we continue to partner with HTCNE in Lima, Peru and expand to reach more children in other countries.
