Nembris is a charming and curious 16-month-old baby. She’s the only child in her family. Nembris’s parents work as subsistence farmers and shared that they need assistance with the cost of Nembris’s treatment.
Nembris has clubfoot of her left foot. Clubfoot is a condition in which the foot is twisted out of shape, which causes difficulty walking and even wearing shoes.
Fortunately, her family traveled to the care center at our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare (AMH). On December 7th, surgeons will perform clubfoot repair surgery, which will allow Nembris to walk easily upon recovery. AMHF is requesting $935 to fund this procedure.
Nembris’s mother shared, “I would be very glad if my daughter can walk without difficulty and if her leg will look normal like other kids. I lost hope…Please help us.”

Nembris underwent clubfoot treatment so she can walk easily as she grows.
Nembris’s treatment to correct her clubfoot was postponed initially after being reviewed by an orthopedic surgeon who suggested that they first do a surgery to remove the extra digit on her foot, before proceeding with the correction and casting of her foot. After undergoing that care, they then began treatment to correct her clubfoot. Currently, Nembris is on her second cast change, which is serving to correct the musculoskeletal malformation of her foot. Through this treatment, Nembris will have straight feet which will help her to walk easily, wear shoes comfortably, and grow up to lead a happy and full life.
Nembris’s mother shared with us, “I am so happy to see her having her foot treated. First, they took the extra digit out, and now they are making the foot straight. Thank you very much.”
