Why Herbie?

The reason why Herbie foundation fits well into the Childhood in a Global Context is because it serves approximately 101 countries and continues to spread the word for enabling specialized surgical care for children worldwide (Herbie Fund, 2013). By considering the needs of children living in low socio economic status, the Herbie Fund supports children in a global context; the organization avoids limiting their resources to third world or developing countries. Thinking globally, the foundation welcomes children from different countries to receive the help needed without any restrictions. This allows for children to be recognized and respected by their individual culture and context instead of focusing on financial status.
