Mbarebaki is a teacher from Uganda. He is a married father to five children, all still studying. His wife is a private primary teacher and he is also a primary teacher. Mbarebaki says their income is salary-based, which they often do not receive in time to meet their monthly costs and by the time the payments come, they already have a huge sum of debts, especially for the school fees of their children.
Mbarebaki arrived at our care center with a left sided breast fibroadenoma, which he has experienced for two months’ now. He has pain and if not treated, the mass will continue to grow.
Mbarebaki traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On February 20th, surgeons will remove the mass. Now, Mbarebaki needs help to raise $187 to fund this procedure.
Mbarebaki says, “I was humbled upon hearing about your program. I hope that I will have my surgery successfully under your support.”

Mbarebaki did not undergo a mass removal on his chest.
Our medical partner who has been helping Mbarebaki shared an update with us that we wanted to share with you right away. Mbarebaki was planning to have a mass removal, however when he arrived for surgery the surgeon felt that further tests were needed as he suspected cancer of the breast. Mbarebaki was asked to visit a nearby cancer institute for additional tests that are only available at that site. When the COVID pandemic arrived, his area has restrained movements so accessing the appropriate testing has been challenging. Our medical partner has asked that we support another patient in need in the meantime and should Mbarebaki still need surgery in the future, we will post his case again at that time. Thank you for your understanding.
