Sah is a 76-year-old rice farmer from Kampong Chhnang province, Cambodia. She is a widow. She lives with her son and her two grandchildren. When she can, she likes to go to the mosque. About two years ago, Sah developed a cataract in her left eye, causing her itchiness, tearing, and blurry vision. A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye, so it is like looking through a frosty or fogged-up window. She has difficulty seeing clearly, including colors and faces, and is worried about falling while walking, so she is unable to go places on her own. When Sah learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, she traveled for three hours to seek treatment. On March 3rd, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in her left eye. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly. She can contribute $50, but needs help raising $213 more to fund her procedure and care. Sah said, "I hope that after the surgery, my vision will improve so I can see clearly, recognize people, and travel to distant places more easily."

Ra is a 68-year-old man from Siem Reap province in Cambodia. He and his wife have two children. His wife sells biscuits, their eldest child is a grocery seller, and their youngest is a car repairer. In his free time, Ra helps his wife with household and work-related tasks. In 2019, Ra began experiencing pain in his right hip due to avascular necrosis, a condition in which bone tissue dies due to a lack of blood supply, which caused a structural failure of his hip ball joint. Ra underwent a total hip replacement through our medical partner, Children's Surgical Center (CSC), at that time. However, over the past year, his pain has returned, and walking has become difficult. His x-ray showed that some of the acetabular cup and femoral stem (components from his hip replacement surgery) have come loose, leaving him unable to walk comfortably or perform daily activities. Ra was referred back to CSC for treatment. On April 8th, he will undergo a revision hip replacement procedure on his right hip. This surgery will stabilize the hip, relieve his pain, and restore his mobility. Ra was able to contribute $100 to his care and is requesting assistance to raise the remaining $1,400 to cover the cost of prosthesis, surgery, medications, post-operative care, and rehabilitation. Roth said, "I had a hip replacement in 2019, but over the past year, the pain has returned, and it's become difficult for me to walk. I hope further treatment will fix the problem and help me move comfortably again."

Enock is a 29-year-old man from Burundi. He migrated to Kenya from Burundi in search of a better life. Determined to build a future for himself, he worked hard cooking mandazi and hawking them daily to earn a living. Everything was going well until September 2025, when he was involved in a tragic accident while returning home after a successful day of selling his goods. Enock was riding on a motorbike when a vehicle lost control and crashed into them. He woke up the next morning in a hospital, unable to move his right leg, which had been severely injured. The fracture was so serious that the bones were exposed. He underwent a skin graft procedure to cover the exposed area, made possible through the support of well-wishers who had found him injured on the road and helped cover the medical costs. Enock was discharged to continue his recovery at home, but his condition worsened. He was brought to our medical partner's care center, AIC Kijabe Hospital, where doctors found his leg to be severely infected, placing him at risk of losing it if urgent treatment was not provided. He needs a skin graft procedure to facilitate the healing of his leg. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is helping Enock receive treatment. On March 4th, surgeons will perform a debridement and skin graft procedure to heal his wound, walk well again, and return to his small business. Now, Enock needs help to fund this $1,185 procedure. Enock says, “The past six months have been very difficult, relying on strangers for food and help moving around. I want to walk again so I can return to work and provide for myself.”
