Sohaila is an eight-year-old girl living in Tanzania with her parents and three siblings. She is an active child but is also very shy.
Sohaila was born with clubfoot of her left foot, the inward and upward bending of her foot, but never received treatment. Due to her condition, it is painful to walk and stand, making daily life and her commute to school very difficult.
Seeking treatment through our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, Sohaila is scheduled to receive surgery to correct her clubfoot on July 11. Her family is requesting $890 to cover the total cost of her procedure and care.
Sohaila is excited for the surgery and says, “I will be very thankful if I get treated and being able to attend school properly. I will be able to help out with home activities again and live my dreams life.”
