Enock is a 29-year-old man from Burundi. He migrated to Kenya from Burundi in search of a better life. Determined to build a future for himself, he worked hard cooking mandazi and hawking them daily to earn a living. Everything was going well until September 2025, when he was involved in a tragic accident while returning home after a successful day of selling his goods. Enock was riding on a motorbike when a vehicle lost control and crashed into them. He woke up the next morning in a hospital, unable to move his right leg, which had been severely injured. The fracture was so serious that the bones were exposed. He underwent a skin graft procedure to cover the exposed area, made possible through the support of well-wishers who had found him injured on the road and helped cover the medical costs. Enock was discharged to continue his recovery at home, but his condition worsened. He was brought to our medical partner's care center, AIC Kijabe Hospital, where doctors found his leg to be severely infected, placing him at risk of losing it if urgent treatment was not provided. He needs a skin graft procedure to facilitate the healing of his leg. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is helping Enock receive treatment. On March 4th, surgeons will perform a debridement and skin graft procedure to heal his wound, walk well again, and return to his small business. Now, Enock needs help to fund this $1,185 procedure. Enock says, “The past six months have been very difficult, relying on strangers for food and help moving around. I want to walk again so I can return to work and provide for myself.”

Stanley is a 64-year-old father of four from Malawi. To provide income for his family, Stanley works as a car sales representative and at a local motorcycle shop, though he admits that his income is often insufficient to fully support them. For the past six months, Stanley has been experiencing abdominal swelling and discomfort. At first, the symptoms were subtle, but over the last two weeks they have become more severe, leaving him with increasing pain and difficulty in walking. This has made both work and home life very challenging. Stanley has been diagnosed with a bilateral inguinal hernia, a condition that occurs when abdominal tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the lower abdominal muscles. Stanley needs a hernia repair procedure, but with his current income, he cannot afford the cost of surgery. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is helping Stanley undergo hernia repair surgery on April 20th. This procedure will cost $500, and Stanley needs your support to fund the procedure. Stanley said, “I am struggling with this condition, which has made my life very difficult. I wish to be able to work and provide for my family again, without pain. I truly hope I can receive support, because I cannot manage raising the funds on my own.”

Muluwerk is a 28-year-old woman from Ethiopia. She and her husband have three young children—two sons and a daughter. Muluwerk has been facing a quiet, painful battle with a bone infection known as osteomyelitis. As a young mother caring for her children and home, she spends her days taking on physically demanding tasks. Muluwerk experiences pain, swelling, and other worrisome symptoms, making each day a showcase of her resilience. Muluwerk visited our medical partner's care center, Saglan Wajee General Hospital (SWGH), for help. After review, her doctors have recommended that she undergo a sequestrectomy, a surgical procedure involving the removal of fragments of infected, dead bone or tissue. If not treated, her condition can lead to recurrent infections that may result in life-threatening complications. Fortunately, on April 8th, Muluwerk will undergo repair surgery at SWGH's care center. Once completed, this procedure will alleviate her symptoms and prevent serious long-term complications. SWGH is requesting $900 to fund her procedure. Muluwerk said, "I am hoping to end this four-year cycle of suffering once and for all. By getting my mobility back, I can finally put all my energy into building a bright future for my family, free from the shadow of this recurring illness."
