Tek Bahadur is a seven-year-old cricket enthusiast from Nepal who recently fell on his outstretched arm during a match. The resulting break was severe and could cause permanent disability if left untreated. Tek Bahadur is the youngest son of his family of seven. His parents work as manual laborers for most of the year, as their small farm provides only enough resources for a few months. Tek Bahadur's father is worried that his son won't get the proper care because the family cannot afford to pay. For $1,040, Tek Bahadur can have surgery to allow his arm to heal properly. Let's help him enjoy a healthier future - and get back on the cricket field!

Meet Eyuccabeth, a 17-year-old girl living in Kenya. Eyuccabeth is the fourth child in her family. Her father died 10 years ago and her mother works temporary jobs in order to take care of the family. "I want to work hard and be able to take care of my mother just like she has taken care of us," says Eyuccabeth. Our medical partner describes Eyuccabeth as a happy, kind-hearted and joyous girl. Unfortunately, she has chronic osteomyelitis, a bone infection, in her right leg. This condition causes her leg to swell and if she doesn't receive surgery, her leg may need to be amputated. For $1,200, we can help Eyuccabeth receive a sequestrectomy, a separation of dead bone from healthy bone, which will allow her to walk normally again. With this surgery, Eyuccabeth will be able to live an active life and help support her family like she wants to.

Gonzalo is a one-year-old baby from Guatemala who hasn't grown in six months. This is indicative of a major development failure. Gonzalo is from a very remote part of Guatemala. His family is very poor. It took them a long time to even save up the bus fare to seek medical attention for their son. Now that he has made it to our medical partner in Guatemala, his doctors are worried that he may have an endocrine problem. If he does, it could greatly increase his risk of developmental and cognitive delays. Fortunately, for just $525, we can give Gonzalo the intensive nutritional therapy he needs to resume his growth and development. This will also cover the cost of an endocrine evaluation to help ensure he grows up with improved cognitive function. Let's help Gonzalo get a healthy start to life!

Elisha is a two-year-old boy from Tanzania who was born with a rare condition that makes it impossible for him to pass stool normally. As a result, Elisha requires a lot of care and attention and is unable to develop normally. Elisha's parents are doing their best to care for him, but as casual laborers earning very little money, they find it difficult to provide Elisha with the medical attention he needs to overcome his condition. His father told our medical partner, "I just pray that something can be done to help my boy be normal and grow like other children." For $1200, Elisha will undergo surgery to correct his condition and create a healthy anal opening for him. This operation will allow Elisha to fall into a normal routine. This will open so many doors for him - starting with allowing him to go to school with other kids and follow a normal development path. Let's give him the chance every child deserves to live a healthy life!
