Meet Lalanne, a one-year-old girl living in Haiti. Born with a cleft palate, Lalanne has difficulties eating and drinking. For a growing kid, this poses major development problems.
Lalanne’s mother is from the Haitian countryside, and provides for her three children on her own. She is determined to take care of her family and wants to make life good for Lalanne, but she's already done all she can afford to help her daughter overcome this condition and grow up healthy.
Lalanne already underwent one round of repair surgery, but needs one more procedure to fix her cleft palate so she can use her lips correctly. For $960, we can make the simple, daily tasks of eating and drinking better for Lalanne.
