Say hello to Srey Pov, a 13-year-old girl from Cambodia. Srey Pov is in the sixth grade and loves listening to pop music. When Srey Pov was five-years-old, she suffered from bad fevers. Her local village healer gave her injections in her leg to treat the fever, which have since caused the muscle in her thigh to become stiff and weak. She’s unable to keep up with her peers at school. For $225, Srey Pov will receive a surgery and physiotherapy to release the quadriceps muscle and restore function to her leg. Let’s get Srey Pov out playing with her friends!

Zin Oo is just six-years-old and has already experienced a great deal. Zin Oo is being raised by his single mother, who works as a day labor in Burma’s northeastern Shan State. In 2013 Zin Oo’s family was forced to flee from their home as a result of anti-Muslim violence in their region. They lived in an IDP camp until the situation settled. The family has since moved back to the home which Zin Oo shares with his mother, aunt, uncle, grandfather, and three cousins. When Zin Oo was two-years-old he broke his left leg. Since then, two flawed surgeries have failed to properly heal him and as a result, his left leg is shorter than the right. Due to his condition, Zin Oo cannot walk on his own, and he hasn’t started school. His mother must carry Zin Oo everywhere she goes, including to work, making normal life very difficult for both of them. His mother cannot afford another corrective surgery. Zin Oo needs a comprehensive and effective surgery to once and for all properly repair the damage done to his leg. $1500 is all Zin Oo needs for this vital surgery that would enable him to walk on his own and attend school, thereby allowing his mother to continue her work and be relived of worry about Zin Oo’s health. Let’s help Zin Oo get better so he can get out and join his peers in school and in play!

Say hello to Chea, a cheery 12-year-old boy living in Cambodia with his mother and father. Chea was born with a rare congenital defect called meningoencephalocele, a condition that is caused by the failure of the neural tube to close completely during fetal development. In addition to the disfigurement that Chea has had to overcome, this condition leaves him at risk of contracting meningitis and developing a brain hemorrhage later in life. Chea’s parents are concerned for their son’s future because the only treatment for this condition is surgery. Although Chea has undergone two surgical procedures in an attempt to treat his condition, they have been unsuccessful and exhausted the family's funds. For $375, Chea would be able to undergo a final operation to remove the protrusions on his face and relieve the pressure that can delay his normal brain development. Help Chea get on the path to a healthier and happier life!
