Meet Nickson, a baby boy from Uganda. He is the first child to his parents who both work as subsistence farmers, though his father sometimes works as a porter on construction sites and his mother weaves mats to earn extra income. Nickson is young but always keen and curious, looking around to observe new faces and smiling widely to those he recognizes. Nickson was born with clubfoot - his parents took him to a traditional bone setter at three months of age, but nothing about his foot changed. His mother, Rosette, used to be an athlete and would love to see Nickson grow up to be an athlete too. She got a scholarship for her primary education because of athletics and would love her child to be a great athlete and get scholarships to fund his education. With $362, Nickson will undergo surgery to have his club foot repaired. This operation will ensure that Nickson will grow up to walk easily and perhaps become an athlete like his mother. "The doctors gave me assurance that they can fix my child's foot. May God bless everyone supporting us," Nickson's mother said.
