Mon is a 47-year-old police officer from Cambodia. He is married and lives with his wife, who is a pepper farmer, and their three children. Their eldest child is in Grade 7, the second child is in Grade 5, and the youngest attends kindergarten. In his free time, he helps his wife with farming and enjoys looking after his children. On May 31st, 2026, Mon slipped and fell from his motorbike. The accident caused a fracture-dislocation of the left navicular bone and non-displaced fractures of the left third and fourth metatarsal bones in his foot. After the injury, he visited a local hospital, where he was examined and given medication. At that time, he was informed that there was no fracture. However, his condition did not improve, and the pain persisted. He later underwent an X-ray at the provincial hospital, which revealed a fracture in his left foot. Unfortunately, the hospital did not have the necessary equipment and resources to provide the required treatment, so he was referred for further orthopedic care. Since the injury, he has experienced significant pain in his left foot, especially when walking. The injury has made it difficult for him to move around, work as a police officer, and carry out his daily responsibilities at home and in the community. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On June 12th, Mon will undergo a fracture repair procedure, which will stabilize the fractured bone, promote proper healing, and reduce pain. This treatment will help him regain mobility, walk more comfortably, return to work, and resume caring for his family. He can contribute $75, but needs help raising $525 more to fund his procedure and care. Mon said, “I hope this surgery will help me recover from my injury, walk comfortably again, and return to my normal life. Thank you to everyone supporting my treatment.”

Riziki is a two-month-old girl from Tanzania, the third-born child in her family. Her parents are farmers and are committed to ensuring that she receives the necessary treatment so she can walk independently, participate fully in daily activities, and have equal opportunities within society. They understand the importance of early intervention and are determined to support her throughout the treatment process. Riziki has clubfoot on both feet, a condition in which the foot is twisted out of shape. The tissues connecting the muscle to the bones are shorter than usual and this causes mobility challenges. She is required to undergo a series of corrective casts applied over several weeks to gradually align her foot. After the casting phase, she will undergo a tenotomy, a minor surgical procedure performed to release the tight Achilles tendon and improve foot position. Following successful correction, Riziki will be fitted with a Foot Abduction Brace (FAB), which she must wear as prescribed until the age of five to maintain the correction and prevent relapse. Fortunately, Riziki's family traveled to our medical partner's care center, Kafika House. Doctors will begin clubfoot treatment on June 23rd. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $341 to fund Riziki's clubfoot correction. After treatment, Riziki's mobility will be better as he grows up. Riziki's mother says, "I wish for my daughter to be treated, so that when she grows up, she can contribute to the society, healthier."

Kyaw Yin is a 28-year-old man from Burma. He moved to Thailand in search of job opportunities to support his family. He previously worked in a factory, earning a modest income that helped cover his living expenses and allowed him to send financial support back home. Kyaw Yin was born with a heart condition called patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), a persistent opening between two major blood vessels leading from the heart. Due to this condition, he experiences fatigue during exertion and is unable to lift or carry heavy objects. He has recently stopped working to focus on his treatment and will undergo surgery to close the ductus arteriosus. After surgery, he hopes to return to work and eventually open a phone repair shop. Our medical partner, Burma Children Medical Fund, is helping Kyaw Yin receive heart surgery. The procedure is scheduled to take place on April 7th and, once completed, is expected to improve his symptoms and allow him to live more comfortably. Kyaw Yin needs help raising $1,500 to fund his procedure and care. Kyaw Yin said, “Thanks to the donors for providing me with financial support. Without your help, I would face serious financial difficulties, as I cannot afford the surgery cost. Thank you so much for helping me.”
