Global Clubfoot Awareness Parv | God Is In Your Attitude

“Global Clubfoot Awareness Parv” is a global initiative by the Give Vacha Foundation to spread the true facts and treatment options for this birth defect in the newborn child.

What is Clubfoot?

Clubfoot is a birth defect where one or both feet are rotated inward and downward. The affected foot and leg may be smaller in size compared to the other. Approximately 50% of cases of clubfoot affect both feet. Most of the time, it is not associated with other problems. Without treatment, the foot remains deformed, and people walk on the sides of their feet. This may lead to pain and difficulty walking.

Who is affected?

A clubfoot occurs in 1 to 4 of every 1,000 live births, making it one of the most common birth defects affecting the legs. About 80% of cases occur in developing countries where there is limited access to care. Clubfoot is more common in firstborn children and males. More than 50000 newborn babies are diagnosed with clubfoot every year. If not treated in a timely manner, the defect is permanent.

What is Global Clubfoot Awareness Parv?

In this project, a dedicated team of doctors, technicians, NGOs, hospitals, educational institutes, and media houses will be incorporated in different countries.
