Maulana is a farmer from Malawi. He lives with his wife, and together with their grown children they run a small farm. Due to his condition, Maulana isn’t able to actively farm, so he works fetching wood. In his free time, he and his family enjoy attending their local mosque.
Since May 2018, Maulana has been experiencing pain and urinary difficulty. These symptoms are caused by an enlarged prostate, a condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia. He needs to undergo a prostate resection surgery, a procedure in which surgeons will remove part of the enlarged gland.
Our medical partner, World Altering Medicine, is requesting $733 to fund Maulana’s surgery. On June 14, he will undergo prostate surgery at Nkhoma Hospital, our medical partner’s care center. The requested money pays for supplies, medications, and two weeks of hospital stay. Maulana and his family were thrilled to learn his surgery would be funded, and he is looking forward to again being active and able to farm his land.
He says, “Thank you!”
