Ly is a 21-year-old rice farmer from Cambodia. He lives with his parents and three siblings in Kampong Chhnang province. His parents are rice farmers, and Ly and his older sister farm to help support the family, including their younger siblings that are still in school. In his free time, Ly likes playing soccer and checking his social media. When he was one year old, Ly suffered burns on his left fingers from an open cooking fire at home. He was treated by a traditional healer in his village. Ly has developed burn scar contractures on all four fingers, tightening the skin around the burns. This experience makes him unable to use his hand easily and impacts his daily life and ability to work. When Ly learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled for two hours seeking treatment. On April 24th, surgeons at CSC will perform a burn contracture release surgery to improve the function and appearance of his hand. Ly and his family contributed $150 to his care and are requesting assistance to raise $345 to fund his surgery. Ly said, "After surgery, I hope I can use my hand more easily and get a better job."

Veasna is a 26-year-old factory worker from Cambodia who lives with his mother, grandmother, and four siblings. Two of his siblings work in factories, and the other two are in school. His mother is a housewife, and his grandmother is 105 years old. Prior to his injury, Veasna enjoyed growing vegetables around his house and playing soccer. Four years ago, Veasna was in a traffic accident that resulted in fractures to his left arm and jaw, as well as severe swelling in his right leg. Now, he has lost muscle in his right leg, causing a fixed ankle position and the shortening of his muscles and tendons in the area. He feels pain and swelling in his ankle, making it difficult to walk. When Veasna learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled for four hours seeking treatment. On May 8th, surgeons at CSC will perform a procedure to fuse his right ankle joint and help him walk easily again. Now, Veasna needs help to fund this $600 procedure. After surgery, Veasna hopes he can walk easily and play soccer again.
