Jiann is a charming baby from Kenya who just turned one year old. He has an older sibling, and his parents sell fruits at the roadside to provide for their family. Jiann has an umbilical hernia. Following his birth, his mother noticed his umbilicus was enlarged and slightly protruding. She was advised to monitor the area, as the concern might resolve on its own. However, by six months of age, there was no noticeable change, and the condition persisted. Now that Jiann has reached one year of age, his mother has been advised that hernia repair surgery is the best option for treatment. His family is requesting financial assistance in order to be able to afford the surgery. If left untreated, Jiann may develop complications, which could also interfere with his growth and development. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare (AMH), is helping Jiann receive treatment. On March 2nd, he will undergo hernia repair surgery at AMH's care center. AMH is requesting $517 to fund Jiann's surgery. Once completed, this procedure will allow him to live more comfortably and confidently. Jiann's mother said, "I would like to see my son grow up in a normal way. This condition may complicate, and that is why I seek help to have him operated on."

Soben is a 25-year-old rice farmer from Cambodia. He is married and lives with his wife, who helps him farm, and their two-year-old daughter. In his free time, Soben enjoys playing volleyball with his friends in the village. In March 2026, Soben was involved in a road traffic accident while riding his motorcycle, resulting in a fracture of his right wrist. He initially received treatment at a local clinic, where X-rays confirmed the fracture, and his wrist was immobilized with a cast. He continues to experience persistent pain and stiffness in his right wrist after the cast was removed. This makes it difficult for him to perform daily activities and limits his ability to work on the farm and support his family. Fortunately, on April 7th, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, will perform a procedure to repair his wrist fracture. This will help reduce pain, restore movement in his wrist, and allow him to return to his farming work and daily activities. He can contribute $37.50, but needs help raising $563 more to fund his procedure and care. Soben said, “After the surgery, I hope I can use my hand without pain again so I can work properly and take care of my family.”

Bora is a 41-year-old electrician from Kampong Cham, Cambodia. He is married and has one son and one daughter. He lives with his wife, who is a grocery seller, while his children are students. In his free time, Bora enjoys exercising with his children. About two months ago, Bora developed a chalazion in his left eye, causing him burning, itchiness, irritation, and eye redness. A chalazion is an inflamed cyst in a patient's tear gland. It is difficult for him to see clearly and work. Bora traveled for three hours to seek treatment from our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre. On June 4th, surgeons will remove the cyst through a chalazion excision procedure. After recovery, Bora's symptoms should improve. Bora can contribute $25, but needs help raising an additional $238 to fund his procedure. Bora said, "I hope after surgery my eye lid no more cyst, and I won’t worry about it anymore. I want to go back to work well."
