Marvens is a five-month-old baby boy from Haiti. He is the first born in his family, who love him, but his health is off to a rocky start. He was born with hydrocephalus, which means there is excess fluid on his brain. Because of his condition, he’s been very sick with flu symptoms and seizures. Marvens needs to have a shunt placed to remove the excess fluid from his brain, allowing him to have a healthy childhood. His mother works in retail and his father is a mechanic, but they are currently unemployed and don’t have family members who can help pay for treatment. According to our medical partner, Project Medishare, this procedure “will give him access to a healthy life and he will be able to go to school one day and enjoy his childhood.” For just $1260, we can help Marvens pay for life-saving medical care - let’s pitch in and make it happen!
