Bikram is an eight-years-old boy from Nepal. He lives in a family of six members and studies in the second grade. Bikram’s family primarily farms for their living but they cannot produce enough to fully support the family, so his father must travel to India to work as a wage laborer. Bikram loves Nepali language class and playing volleyball. “Bikram was watching older boys in his neighborhood play volleyball, when the ball rolled down the slope by the side of the court. He ran down the slope to get the ball, but fell down in the process. He developed a painful swelling in the elbow and left hand,” reports our medical partners, Possible. Bikram’s family is unable to afford treatment for his broken arm. His mother tells us, “It is very difficult for us right now.

It will be difficult for us even to find a loan for his treatment.” For just $205 we can fund treatment for Bikram’s broken arm. Let's help Bikram get back on the volleyball court!
