Surgeons for Little Lives Surgeons for little lives is a non-profit organisation with a powerful commitment to saving the lives of children.

Surgeons for Little Lives is run by a small group of Paediatric Surgeons, and ordinary people, passionate about uplifting the lives of less fortunate children needing life changing surgery. It was started with the overriding objective of raising the level of care given to patients in the Paediatric Surgery wards in state hospitals, in the Greater Gauteng area, to world class standards. Our chairman is currently Professor Jerome Loveland, Head of Paediatric Surgery at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital, and The University of the Witwatersrand.
