Nirajan is a bright, active boy. He does well in school and loves playing cricket with his friends. His favorite subject is math, and his mother wants him to become a doctor. Nirajan's promising future is threatened by a serious heart condition. Three months ago, he was diagnosed with pericardial effusion, abnormal accumulation of fluid around the heart that can be fatal if left untreated. Nirajan is already experiencing chest pain, fever, shortness of breath, and weight loss. He needs surgery to remove the fluid and save his life. We hope to raise $1,025 to pay for Nirajan's treatment in Kathmandu, Nepal's capital. Both his father and mother work in house construction to support him, but in a community where the average person lives on less than $1 a day, this surgery is not within their reach. Let's help Nirajan get healthy again!

Everline is pregnant and due by the end of this month! She and her husband farm maize, beans and potatoes and sell what they can to earn an income. Everline told Lwala Community Alliance that she is feeling good and doesn’t have any complaints so far. Let’s keep her feeling that way. For $215 Lwala can keep Everline and the baby healthy. Everline will receive prenatal care, a hospital delivery and a post-birth checkup. Pregnancy and childbirth are perilous for too many women like Everline, who may not otherwise be able to afford essential care. She recently said, “I pray for a safe and healthy delivery in the Lwala facility so that my baby comes out healthy, grows well, and later, goes to school.” Lets help Everline on her quest to keep her children happy and healthy.
