Meet 27-year-old Sukroth. He lives in a rural area of Cambodia and works as a rubber plantation laborer to contribute to his family’s daily needs.
“About one month ago, Sukroth had an injury with a machine at work,” writes our medical partner Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC). “He lost one finger and badly damaged his left hand. Sukroth spent the family savings to travel to Vietnam for good treatment; however, they have run out of money, and Sukroth needs further surgery to improve hand function.”
While Sukroth continues to work at his job, he is worried that he will be fired due to his limited ability to carry things and grip his hand.
For $300, the team at CSC can perform a contracture release surgery with a skin graft, which will improve the overall function of Sukroth’s left hand. Let’s help Sukroth regain his dexterity and continue working his job at full capacity.
