Meet Simon, a husband and father of one child. He lives with his family, including his younger siblings, in a rental house in Nairobi. Simon supports his family and siblings by working as a driver. Unfortunately, a road accident on November 3, 2016, left him with a fracture on his femur. He received first aid before being transferred to our medical partner's hospital, AIC Kijabe Hospital. Doctors performed a fracture repair surgery on November 9, 2016. This procedure will prevent any complications with the injury, including arthritis and permanent disability. After recovery, he should be able to return to work and provide for his family. Now, Simon needs our help to pay for this $1,451 procedure. “I want to be well and provide for my family, who rely on me completely," says Simon.

Benedicto is a nine-month-old boy who was born with a congenital malformation in a sensitive area. He received surgery immediately after birth. Benedicto's family funded this treatment with church donations and loans from friends. On October 9, 2016, Benedicto received two additional surgeries at our medical partner's hospital, Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre. These procedures should relieve him of his uncomfortable symptoms. Now, his family needs help to fund this $975 treatment. "I seek your help in getting treatment for my son because I have no funds," says Benedicto's mother. "I will be very happy and God will bless you."
