Gloria is a 28-year-old woman from Uganda. She lives with her parents in a rural village. Gloria farms on a small piece of land, where she grows beans, groundnuts, maize, and cassava. She enjoys visiting friends, walking around her gardens, and listening to radio programs on health and development.
During the delivery of her first child, Gloria developed an uncomfortable condition in a sensitive area. She experiences discomfort and urinary dysfunction. On October 27, Gloria underwent a repair surgery at our medical partner's hospital, Bwindi Community Hospital. Now, she needs help to fund this $547 procedure.
After recovery, Gloria plans to start a small business selling tomatoes, onions, salt, and millet flour. She will use the money to support her parents.
"I thank donors so much for having a helping heart," says Gloria. "I would not be able to support my treatment if it were not because of your support."
