Mandela is an energetic three-year-old from Malawi. He was born with a condition that causes his legs to bend inwards and makes it painful for him to walk.
When Mandela’s legs began to “bow” around the age of one, his parents knew something was wrong. They brought him to our partner hospital because they heard they might be able to access high-quality, affordable care there. However, the surgery Mandela needs to walk normally costs $1,000 - far beyond his family’s financial reach.
By funding Mandela’s surgery, we can buy him an active childhood, productive adulthood, and a happier, healthier life. Let’s make it happen for him!
