Priscilla is the four-month-old daughter of Tanzanian farmers. She was born with club feet, a condition which causes her feet to angle inwards. If left untreated, this condition will hinder her ability to stand or walk normally. Priscilla's parents rely on seasonal employment at other people’s farms to support themselves. The $500 surgery their daughter needs to live a normal, active life is far outside their reach. But if she doesn't receive medical care soon, Priscilla will begin to use the sides of her feet to move herself around, which will cause more pain when walking in the future. “It is our prayer that our baby girl’s deformity will be corrected so she can walk properly like other children when the time comes,” Priscilla’s parents say. Let's help make sure this little girl's first steps are pain-free!

Beatrice may only be two-years-old, but she’s got the heart of a diva (in the best way possible). This little lady is brimming with attitude and a personality that’s just waiting to burst out. One of the things holding her back is the fact that she has six toes on her left foot. This extra digit makes wearing shoes nearly impossible and causes her pain when she tries to walk. Beatrice’s mother, Mary, hopes for an inhibition-free life for her daughter and one defined by who she is rather than the number of toes she has. For $1,000 the surgical teams at CURE Zambia will remove Beatrice’s problem toe and give her the ability to not only walk pain-free but let her personality flourish!

Yona is a smart and motivated ten-year-old from Tanzania. The oldest of three children, he lives with his parents on a small farm where they grow corn and sunflowers. While playing at school one day, Yona fractured his leg. If left untreated, his injury will cause him severe pain, prevent him from walking, and limit his opportunities in the future. Yona is interested in agriculture and farming, and hopes to grow up and own a large piece of land one day so he can support his family. He says he hopes to continue his education to ensure he will be able to manage his land successfully. For $700, we can help Yona receive corrective surgery and enable him to walk normally and without pain. Let's get Yona on the road to recovery!

Ibrahim is in the fourth grade. Growing up in Tanzania, it's no surprise that he loves soccer. Despite the fact that he was born with club foot, a condition which causes his foot to angle inwards and makes it painful for him to walk or run, Ibrahim loves playing soccer with his friends and wants to be able to keep up with them. Ibrahim's condition is easily treatable. His doctors say that simple surgery will rectify his malformation and allow him to play soccer, walk, and run normally. They caution that if left untreated, he could develop a painful condition called osteoarthritis. But Ibrahim's parents are small-scale farmers and cannot afford the $700 procedure. Ibrahim wants to lead an active life. “I would like to work one day as a hunter," he says. With our support, Ibrahim will have access to the medical care he needs to walk, run, and be mobile like everyone else.
