Sothea is a 44-year-old parking money collector from Cambodia. He lives with his parents and two younger brothers in Kompong Chhnang Province. His parents are farmers. He works alongside his second brother and enjoys watching the news on his phone in his free time. On April 26, 2026, Sothea was injured in a motorbike accident that caused open fractures of his right tibia and fibula. He was initially treated with an external fixator and later had a plate and screws placed. He has ongoing pain and stiffness in his right leg, and an infection in his surgical wounds. The infection and discomfort make walking difficult, and he currently relies on crutches. When Sothea learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled three hours to seek treatment. On September 7th, surgeons at CSC will perform a debridement procedure to remove damaged and infected tissue and collect samples to help guide his treatment for the infection. He can contribute $50, but needs help raising $367 more to fund his procedure and care. Sothea said, “I hope this treatment will help heal the infection and reduce the pain and stiffness in my leg. I want to walk more comfortably without relying on crutches and return to my work at the market.”

Chea is a grandfather of nine from Kandal province in Cambodia. He is 76 years old and a retired farmer who used to grow vegetables and crops to support his family. He has three sons, two daughters, and nine grandchildren. Since he stopped farming, his children have been supporting Chea and his wife. In his free time, Chea enjoys visiting the pagoda and participating in religious ceremonies. About two weeks ago, Chea developed a chalazion in his left eye, causing him eyelid swelling, pain, and itching. A chalazion is an inflamed cyst in a patient's tear gland. It is difficult for him to see clearly, which causes him discomfort. Chea traveled for two hours to seek treatment from our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre. On May 27th, surgeons will remove the cyst through a chalazion excision procedure. After recovery, Chea's symptoms should improve. Chea can contribute $25, but needs help raising $238 more to fund his procedure and care. Chea said, " I hope that the swelling in my eye will completely stop so that I no longer have to worry about it. I will be very happy if I can return to growing vegetables around my house and continue living a peaceful and active life."

Jeremia is an 11-month-old baby boy. He is the only child in his family and lives with both parents, who work as pastoralists. They keep cattle and occasionally cultivate maize during the farming season to support their family. Jeremia has clubfoot on both feet, a congenital condition in which feet are twisted inward. Without appropriate treatment, this condition can make walking difficult and affect his ability to wear regular shoes comfortably as he grows. When Jeremia was born, his parents were unaware that medical treatment could help correct the position of his feet. Hope came when the Kafika House outreach team visited their village and identified Jeremia as a child who could benefit from treatment. For his parents, this discovery opened the door to an opportunity they had not previously known was available. Following an assessment, Jeremia has been scheduled to begin clubfoot treatment on October 20th. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $341 to fund Jeremia's clubfoot repair. After treatment, Jeremia will have improved mobility as he grows. “We are grateful for this opportunity to help our son walk comfortably,” says Jeremia's mother
