Annah is a 27-year-old married charcoal seller. She and her husband buy and resell charcoal to earn a living for their family. They have a 14-month-old child and they rent a single roomed home. During her free time, Annah enjoys spending time with her family. Annah is currently expecting a new baby and her doctors have recommended that she deliver via a Caesarean section. If she does not deliver her baby via a C-section, she and her baby are at risk of a uterine rupture and other complications. A C-section delivery will allow doctors to ensure the safety of both mother and child. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare (AMH), is helping Annah and her baby receive treatment. On April 25th, she will undergo a C-Section at AMH's care center. Now, she and her husband need help raising $214 to fund her procedure and care. Annah shared, "I pray that I may have a successful surgery after conceiving so quickly from the time I had surgery with my other baby. I hope for a good outcome. I want to continue with our business after I am better."

Sister Gloria is a Catholic nun with a degree in transformative education and faith. She works as a secretary in the office of her church training center. Sr Gloria shared that she was orphaned and now works to care for her brothers and sisters who lack support, providing them with counseling when they have family issues. Since 2019, Sr Gloria has been experiencing lower abdominal pains and recently began experiencing more severe pains in March. She was diagnosed with multiple uterine myomas and fibroids. Sr Gloria needs to undergo a hysterectomy, a procedure in which surgeons will remove her uterus. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare (AMH), can help Sr Gloria finally heal. On April 5th, she will undergo surgery at AMH’s care center. Once recovered, Sr Gloria will be able to resume her daily activities free of pain. AMH is requesting $319 to fund this procedure.

Daw Moo is a 58-year-old woman. She moved to Thailand from Burma and lives with her daughter, son-in-law, and granddaughter. She helps with household chores and looking after her granddaughter. She has three other children that study in schools in Burma. In her free time, Daw Moo loves to meditate and pray for her children and her family. In late December, Daw Moo was diagnosed with a cataract in her left eye. She has blurry vision and it is difficult for her to do her daily activities, like cooking, cleaning and washing clothes. Fortunately, our medical partner, Burma Children Medical Fund (BCMF), is helping Daw Moo receive treatment. On March 2nd, doctors will perform a lens replacement, during which they will remove Daw Moo's natural lens and replace it with an intraocular lens implant. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly and go about her daily activities. Now, she needs help raising $1,500 to fund her procedure and care. Daw Moo shared, "I feel uncomfortable seeing with only one eye. I will be very happy to do my daily chores after I have regained vision in my left eye. Thank you to the organizations who found donors for me. Without your help, I could never afford to pay for my surgery. My daughter also cannot pay for me as she has to support her younger siblings’ school fees."
