Kyaw is a 27-year-old from Burma who is bravely fighting a range of challenges. He has lived with cardiac disease since he was a boy, but his family passed away when he was young and his adoptive family was unable to afford the surgery he needed to live a normal life. Despite his desire to support himself, Kyaw is struggling make ends meet on his own because of fatigue and shortness of breath caused by his condition. A $2,000 cardiac surgery is all Kyaw needs to live a life uninhibited by the cardiac problem that’s affected him his whole life.

Bartolina is a 38-year-old Mayan woman living in Guatemala. She went to the doctor because of severe pain and swelling in her chest and arm, and it turns out she has a large cyst inside her breast. Bartolina is unable to work because of the pain the cyst is causing, and needs medical attention immediately. She cannot afford follow-up care to remove the cyst and determine whether or not it's cancerous. We need to raise $1050 to remove Bartolina's cyst and relieve her pain. The cost of Bartolina's treatment includes transportation to and from the health facility, all necessary medications, and follow-up radiology and pathology tests.

As someone who loves to eat fish, Nget can’t think of a better job than being a fisherman! He is one of the lucky ones who enjoys what he does, and if he’s not out on a boat, he is helping his wife on their small vegetable farm in their village. Three weeks ago, however, Nget burned his foot on an electrical rat trap. His wound has since become infected, exposing underlying bone and causing immense pain. He hasn’t been able to walk without crutches and without immediate intervention, the infection with spread and he will need his foot amputated. For only $300, we can help save Nget’s foot. The surgeons at Children’s Surgical Centre will remove the dead tissue and skin graft the affected area as soon as possible to prevent further infection and decrease pain. This procedure will ensure that Nget can get back to catching (and eating!) as much fish as he wants and continue to support his family without losing his foot.

War Htun is a 35-year-old woman who lives with her husband in Burma. She used to resell clothing at the market, but when it became unprofitable she began helping at her sister-in-law's dry goods business. For her help, War Htun is compensated in food, clothing, and sometimes money. About six months ago, War Htun began having pain in the lower right side of her abdomen and unusually long menstrual cycles. At the clinic, she was diagnosed with a uterine myoma, which is a non-cancerous tumor that grows in the muscle of the uterus. War Htun's wish is to regain her full health so she can support her family and husband, who is not well. For her wish to come true, War Htun will need a $1,000 surgery to remove the tumor. Let's fund her treatment and give War Htun's family the chance to get back on their feet.
