Margaret is a farmer from Kenya. She is 56 years old and a mother of six. She plants maize and beans for domestic use. Margaret lost her husband in 1992.
Two weeks ago, Margaret tripped and fractured her left hand. She has currently lost function of her hand and cannot perform routine tasks.
Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner can help. On April 19, Margaret will undergo a fracture repair procedure, called an open reduction and internal fixation. We hope that with treatment, Margaret will be able to return home and work normally. Now, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $771 to fund this procedure.
