Neverless is a 38-year-old mother of three from Uganda. She and her husband have two daughters and one son. Neverless grew up in a large family as as the oldest of nine children. She studied up to Primary Seven, and her husband studied until Senior Three. Neverless practices small-scale farming, while her husband works as a builder, to provide for their family. For more than eight years, Neverless has been living with a swelling on her face. The swelling has progressively increased in size with time. The mass causes her to have frequent headaches and dizziness whenever she walks or engages in any strenuous activity. Overall, this condition has significantly affected Neverless's ability to work, and she is often confined to her home, which has caused significant financial stress for her and her family. Neverless has sought treatment from various health facilities, where she was only given painkillers that did not improve her condition. Later, she shared her situation with a friend, who advised her to visit our medical partner's hospital, Rwibaale Hospital. Neverless traveled to the hospital for evaluation, and her doctors determined she needs to undergo surgery to address her condition and alleviate her symptoms. On June 2nd, surgeons at our medical partner's care center will remove the mass. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $153 to fund her procedure. Neverless said, "I hope to get rid of the frequent headache and dizziness after treatment."

Chanthy is a 35-year-old father and excavator driver from Cambodia. He is married and lives in Kampong Thom province with his wife and their three children. His eldest child is in Grade 7, his second child is in Grade 3, and their youngest is just one month old. His wife stays at home to manage the household and care for the children, but the family faces many challenges and struggles to make ends meet, especially with a newborn to look after. In his free time, he enjoys playing volleyball with friends in the village. Three days ago, Chanthy had an accident when an excavator rolled over his leg as he was helping his neighbor whose truck was stuck in the mud. He has a severe wound on his left lower leg, is experiencing intense pain, and is unable to walk, which makes it difficult for him to care for himself and support his family. When Chanthy learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled for three hours seeking treatment. On March 17th, surgeons at CSC will perform a debridement procedure to to remove damaged and infected tissue from the wound, reduce pain, and restore his ability to walk and use his leg normally. Chanthy can contribute $50, but needs help raising $367 more to fund his procedure and care. Chanthy said, “The pain is so strong that I can’t walk, and it has been very hard for me and my family. I hope that with this treatment, my leg will heal so I can stand and take care of my children again.”

Ana is a one-year-old girl from Bolivia. She lives with her mom, who sells vegetables, her dad, who is a locksmith, and her twin sister. When Ana was born, her mom noticed that she couldn't gain weight, and she was always tired. Doctors soon discovered her heart condition and informed her mother that she needed surgery. Ana has a cardiac condition called a ventricular septal defect. A hole exists between the two lower chambers of her heart: blood leaks through this hole instead of circulating normally, leaving her weak and short of breath. Ana was also born with a cleft lip and palate. After heart surgery, doctors can then proceed to repair her cleft. On May 6th, Ana will undergo cardiac surgery at our medical partner's care center, Hospital del Niño Dr. Ovidio Aliaga Uría. During surgery, surgeons will sew a patch over the hole in her heart so that blood can no longer leak through it. Ana's family needs help to fund the costs of cardiac care and surgery. Our medical partner, International Cardiac Alliance, requests $1,500 to cover the cost of cardiac exams and diagnostics, surgical costs, follow-up care, and medications. Ana's mother shared, "I pray this surgery goes well so my little daughter can feel better and have a happy life."
