Muhamad is 12-years-old and lives in Ethiopia with his parents and two younger siblings. Eight months ago, Muhamad fell and developed an infection in his right leg that worsened and spread to the bone.
Muhamad can now barely walk, even with the help of crutches. As a result, he now stays home from school with his father as he farms and tends to the family’s animals.
Muhamad is very smart and outgoing. He misses playing soccer with his friends. With our support of $815, he will receive bone graft surgery that will allow him to walk again and return to school.
