Bunny is a 33-year-old man who lives in Kandal Province in Cambodia. He works as a construction worker, while his wife works in a garment factory. The couple also has a small household garden, where they grow vegetables. Together, Bunny and his wife have three children. About a month ago, Bunny was involved in a motor vehicle accident, and sustained an injury on his left foot. He initially received treatment at a private clinic, where the wound was cleaned and dressed. He then continued wound care at home. Despite this, the wound failed to heal, and has remained open as a non-healing injury. The condition has significantly affected his daily life. He has difficulty walking, performing physical work, and returning to his job, which has impacted his family’s financial stability. Bunny was referred to our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, for specialized care. He is scheduled to undergo free flap surgery on his left foot on June 17th, at Kien Khleang National Rehabilitation Centre. The surgery will close the wound, promote healing, and restore foot function. This will help restore Bunny's mobility, allowing him to walk more comfortably, and enabling him to return to work and normal daily activities. Bunny and his family are able to contribute towards the cost of his treatment, but need help raising $759 more to fund the surgery. Bunny says: “After surgery, I hope that my wound will heal completely, so I can walk comfortably again, return to work, and take care of my daily responsibilities without difficulty.”

Tengeletu is a 53-year-old man from Malawi. He is married with four adult children and engages in subsistence farming together with his wife to support the family. To supplement their income, Tengeletu also works as a casual laborer, mainly by doing cleaning jobs. In May 2025, Tengeletu started experiencing a swelling in his inguinal region. He sought medical care, and was diagnosed with an inguinal hernia, a condition that occurs when abdominal tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the lower abdominal muscles, causing a bulge in the groin area. Since then, he has made multiple visits to the hospital in hope of undergoing surgical repair, but without success. During his most recent visit to the hospital in early March this year, he was referred to our medical partner's care center, Partners in Hope Medical Center, for further support. He is very hopeful that the surgical operation will restore his health, enabling him to resume his daily activities to earn a living and support his family. Fortunately, on April 9th, he will undergo hernia repair surgery with the help of our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare. Tengeletu is raising $575 to fund the procedure, which will allow him to live more comfortably and confidently. He says, "I am very worried about this condition, I am not ready to die. I hope you can provide treatment support for me too, just like others before me have benefitted."

Beatrice is 46 years old and lives in Malawi. She is a single mother of two children and a grandmother to one. She earns a living through small-scale farming, growing vegetables and maize when the season allows. What she harvests is what sustains her home. For the past year, Beatrice has been struggling with her health. She has endured prolonged and heavy bleeding, often leaving her weak and exhausted. Alongside this, she began to feel a lump in the lower left side of her abdomen. At first, she tried to brave through the discomfort, but in February 2026, the pain became intense and impossible to ignore. An ultrasound scan revealed multiple uterine masses as well as an inguinal mass. Presently, the ongoing bleeding has also left her anaemic. Beatrice was started on treatment at our medical partner's care center, Nkhoma Hospital, to stabilize her condition. After a month of care, her hemoglobin has improved from 8 to 10, giving her strength in preparation for surgery. Doctors have now advised that she urgently needs a total abdominal hysterectomy to address the problem. Beatrice's surgery has been scheduled for May 7th. For her, this is the hope she has been holding on to, a chance to live without constant pain and weakness. But the surgery cost of $651 stands in her way. With no stable income beyond her small harvests and no close family to turn to for financial help, she has not been able to raise any funds for the procedure. Beatrice's hope is for a chance to undergo the surgery and return to a life where she can care for her children and grandchild, without the burden of illness. She said, “I have been weak for a long time, and it has not been easy to look after my family like this. I want to be strong again and live without this pain. I am hoping that I will receive support and get this surgery.”
