Chambani is a boy from a large family in Tanzania. His father shared that he likes to keep to himself and is quite shy. Chambani’s parents are small-scale farmers and they do not earn enough to cover the day-to-day needs of their family and fund the medical treatment that Chambani needs.
Chambani has clubfoot of both feet. Clubfoot is a condition in which the foot is twisted out of shape. This causes difficulty walking and even wearing shoes.
Fortunately, Chambani’s family traveled to visit our medical partner’s care center, Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre. There, surgeons will perform clubfoot repair surgery on January 3rd. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $935 to fund Chambani’s clubfoot repair. After treatment, he will be healthy and able to wear shoes and walk easily.
Chambani’s father says, “I believe that it is by luck that I have found this place. I want the best for my child. I do not have any money but I have been fortunate enough to find people who have contributed to my traveling expenses and now his treatment. Please help me accomplish my dream of having my son treated.”
