Mathayo a 9-year-old boy and the fourth of seven children in a large family. In 2013, Mathayo woke up from his afternoon nap and crawled near the open fireplace in his home, while his mother was out herding goats. His left leg was severely burned by the ashes. Mathayo needs a skin graft to help heal his leg.
Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is helping Mathayo receive treatment. On April 28th, surgeons will perform a skin graft procedure, and Mathayo’s family needs help to fund this $747 procedure.
Mathayo shared, “My foot has been repaired but I still have a big wound which the doctor says I have to have another surgery to help me heal easily.”

Mathayo underwent a skin graft procedure to heal his leg after his burn accident.
Mathayo had been scheduled for skin graft surgery to help cover up his wound to promote quick healing and to prevent the area from being infected. Unfortunately, when he was admitted for surgery, the wound was found to be infected and the infected tissue had to be removed before the skin graft surgery was performed later. He has had a successful skin graft surgery done and his wound is doing great, showing good healing progress.
Mathayo’s family was so grateful for support and told us, “Thank you very much and God bless you all.”
