16-year-old Hellen is an ambitious young girl from Zambia who recently had a group of growths removed from her shoulder and leg, funded by Watsi donors. After the growths were removed, surgeons at CURE realized they were dealing with an additional, even bigger challenge: a bone tumor in her leg. Hellen deals with extreme pain and limited range of motion in her leg because of this tumor. She is unable to walk or run normally, and hasn't been able to participate fully in activities at school or home. This procedure will revolutionize Hellen's life and give her the chance to grow up normally. Let's make it happen for her!

Three-year-old Chriswell is a strong boy from Malawi who was born with a condition called genu valgus (knock knees) in both legs. He feels pain when walking, and running is "out of the question." Chriswell won't be able to start school next year if he doesn't receive treatment. Chriswell lives with his parents and three siblings. His father resells items in a small market to support their family with food and other necessities. The cost of this treatment is outside of their reach. For $1,000, we can fund Chriswell’s surgery so he can start school on time with his peers and live a normal life!

Khin Pa loves to learn and wants to be a teacher when she grows up. Several months ago, she broke her right thigh bone. Unable to walk, Khin Pa stopped attending school. Her parents paid over a day's worth of their combined wages to take her to a clinic. Despite their efforts, she did not receive proper care and has been immobile ever since. Khin Pa needs immediate care to repair her broken leg and the right medication to treat her enlarged lymph nodes. The income her parents earn as carpenters and day laborers is hardly enough to provide for the daily needs of their family of seven, let alone pay the $2,000 needed for Khin Pa's treatment. With our help, Khin Pa can get the medical care she needs to be healthy and mobile again so she can return to school and fulfill her dreams of becoming a teacher!
