Sékou is one of the highest performing students in his school in Mali. He is dedicated to his education and achieving his dream of becoming a veterinarian.
Since birth, Sékou has had a testicle that has not descended into his scrotum, a medical condition called cryptorchidism. If not treated, Sékou risks becoming sterile, getting testicular cancer in the future, or developing other complications such as testicular torsion.
Sékou’s father is extremely worried about his son, but does not have the means to pay for the treatment. For $405, Sékou will receive surgery to correct his testes and eliminate his risks of infertility, testicular torsion, and testicular cancer. Sékou always manages to have a smile on his face, let’s get him this surgery so he has something new to smile about!
