Post burn deformities can cause loss of livelihood and more importantly, a loss of self-worth. Though many burn related deformities can be corrected helping the patients to lead a productive life, tragically many of these potential patients come from society strata that excludes them from the service loop of reconstructive surgeries. Affordability, lack of awareness, lack of supportive guidance, are some of the bottlenecks. “Burns to Shine”, a project to help these burn survivors regain their independence and self-worth through free reconstructive surgeries is an initiative of Burn Survivor Mission Saviour (BSMS) Trust. Over the past 6 years, the Burns to Shine initiative has facilitated reconstructive surgeries for 126  survivors, and with the track record, we now feel confident to increase our impact manifold and aspire to facilitate surgeries for 25 patients during the current financial year. A patient-centric attitude, the commitment of the team involved, complete end-to-end rehabilitation in addition to surgical interventions, and transparency practices of the trust are the key factors for success of this project.
