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.”

Leng is a 60-year-old rice farmer from Cambodia. He is married and has two sons, three daughters, and eight grandchildren. He lives with his wife, who is also a farmer, and his youngest daughter, who works at a beauty salon. In his free time, Leng enjoys watching volleyball. About two years ago, Leng developed a cataract in his right eye, causing him itchiness, tearing, and blurry vision. A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye, similar to looking through a frosty or fogged-up window. He has difficulty seeing things clearly, including colors and faces, and is worried about falling when walking, so he is not able to go places on his own. When Leng learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, he traveled for two hours seeking treatment. On July 7th, doctors will perform a phacoemulsification cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in his right eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Now, he needs help to fund this $263 procedure. Leng said, "I hope that after my cataract surgery, my vision will improve, my sensitivity to bright light will go away, and I will be able to return to growing rice without difficulty."

50-year-old Snollah is a small-scale businesswoman who sells tomatoes in her neighborhood in Malawi. Together, she and her husband have three children, the youngest of whom is still in school. Snollah's husband is a quantity surveyor who is currently unable to work, due to a diagnosis of prostate cancer, for which he is receiving treatment. For about three years now, Snollah has been experiencing backaches, lower abdominal pains and a lack of appetite. At first, she was treated for epigastric pain, but when that didn't work, she returned to the hospital, where scans revealed several large, uterine fibroids. Because of the size of these tumors, they are considered to be potentially dangerous, as they can cause pressure on other organs. She was informed that she would need to undergo a hysterectomy, a procedure in which surgeons will remove her uterus. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $1,363 to fund Snollah's surgery, which is scheduled to take place on June 8th, at Partners in Hope Medical Center. Once recovered, Snollah will be able to resume her daily activities free of pain, and to continue to support her husband. She says, "I experience fullness in my belly which is very uncomfortable. Your support will provide comfort and help me be a supportive mother."
