At 30 years old, San should be enjoying life with her husband and two children. Instead, she's facing the frightening potential consequences of untreated congenital heart disease. San first started experiencing symptoms of heart disease when she was 13. But as a low-income person in Thailand, seeking medical attention is difficult. And as a result, she wasn't diagnosed by a doctor until last year. San's life has been rocked by her diagnosis. She's been forced to stop working, relying on her husband for support. Yet she maintains a sense of optimism and hope for the future, telling her doctors that once she is healthy again, she wants to donate money to struggling communities so that children have access to the education and healthcare she didn't have. Only $1,500 stands in the way of San receiving life-changing heart surgery. Let's close the gap and help San move forward with her life!

Mu Cho is a 49-year-old Burmese refugee who lives with her husband in a refugee camp on the Thai-Burma border. She works several odd jobs to earn money because there are no formal job opportunities in the refugee camp, but cannot afford basic healthcare. A few months ago, Mu Cho began experiencing severe abdominal pains and noticed tenderness on her right side. She assumed these were menstrual cramps, but soon the swelling grew worse - preventing her from walking long distances. Mu Cho visited a health clinic and an ultrasound revealed she has a large mass on her uterus. For $1,000, Mu Cho will undergo surgery to remove the uterine mass. This operation will allow Mu Cho to move about freely again and return to work without constant cramping and pain.

Mue Soe is only 21-years-old, but she has had heart problems since she was a baby. When Mue Soe was born, her mother took her to a clinic in Burma but she could not afford the testing required for a full diagnosis. As Mue Soe grew up, she was always very tired and weak and her heart palpitations prevented her from playing with other children at school. When Mue Soe was 13, she made it to a clinic in Thailand where she was diagnosed with cardiac disease and told she needed surgery. Her family was nowhere near being able to afford the procedure. Since then, Mue Soe has been in and out of health clinics due to her chronic fatigue and weakness. She is especially worried about paying for her healthcare now, since her mother passed away and she takes care of her younger brother. For $2,000, we can help Mue Soe receive cardiac surgery. This operation will allow Mue Soe to overcome the fatigue and weakness she has endured for so many years and allow her to return to school and fulfill her dreams of becoming a nurse and caring for her brother.
