Meet Sainder! Sainder is a one-year-old boy from Haiti. He lives with his parents and two siblings out in the countryside. Sainder’s parents work in the fields to grow food for their family and are just able to provide for their children’s basic needs.
Sainder was born with a cleft lip, which needs treatment so he can eat normally. The first hospital Sainder’s parents took him to were unable to help, but luckily our medical partner, Project Medishare can.
Doctors from Project Medishare write, “Sainder is unable to eat and drink well, and he feels uncomfortable due to his lip deformation. Treatment will bring joy to his family’s life because he will be able to eat and drink easily.”
“I am very excited to see how my son will look after surgery!” exclaims Sainder’s mother.
For $960, Sainder will receive surgery for his cleft lip, which will improve his appearance, as well as allow him to eat, drink, and breathe without difficulty. Let’s give Sainder the opportunity to have a happy, healthy childhood!
