Raj Kumar is 12 and loves playing cricket! But his adventures on the field are made difficult by a painful hernia that he can’t afford to have treated.
Raj Kumar needs surgery to remove the hernia and prevent strangulation (a situation where the hernia can become life-threatening). In the fifth grade in Nepal, living with his parents, younger brother, and sister, money in Raj Kumar’s family can be tight. His family even tried to seek treatment for him in India once because they thought it’d be more affordable, but they didn’t have any luck.
With our support of $1,390, Raj Kumar will receive surgery to have the hernia removed, which will allow him to continue his education and activities free from painful complications!
