Annizabelle is an 11-year-old fifth-grader who lives with her parents and three siblings in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Her father is a mechanic, and her mother is a vendor. Anizabelle has a cardiac condition called rheumatic mitral regurgitation. One of the valves in her heart is severely damaged due to an infection she suffered earlier in her childhood. As a result, her heart is unable to adequately pump blood through her body, leaving her weak and short of breath. Fortunately, our medical partner, Haiti Cardiac Alliance (HCA), is helping Annizabelle receive treatment. Annizabelle and her family will fly to the Dominican Republic, where she will undergo cardiac surgery at Hospital CEDIMAT on August 8th. During the surgery, doctors will attempt to repair her existing valve. If they cannot repair the valve, they will remove it, and implant an artificial replacement. HCA is contributing $9,000 to pay for the surgery. Now Annizabelle and her family need help to cover the $1,500 for the pre-surgical prep, lab tests, medicines and post operative follow up visits. In addition, this sum will pay for the passports for the social workers who will accompany the family overseas. Annizabelle's mother said: "Our family is praying that this surgery will be a success so that our daughter can get back to focusing on school and the rest of her life."

Jasibe, who is only four months old, lives with her mother, grandparents and three older siblings in the mountains above La Paz, Bolivia. Jasibe was born with a hole between the two lower chambers of her heart, and a leak between two of the major blood vessels near her heart. As a result, blood doesn't flow normally through her body, and she struggles to breathe and to gain weight. Fortunately, our medical partner is here to help. On April 5th, doctors at Hospital del Niño Dr. Ovidio Aliaga Uría will perform surgery, and repair both of these defects, so that blood can flow normally through Jasibe's body. Now she and her family need your help to raise $1,500 for this life changing procedure. Jasibe's mother said: "Our family is praying that after this surgery our daughter will become healthy and will be able to gain weight!"

Pisey is a 26-year-old driver from Cambodia. He lives in Phnom Penh, where he worked full-time as a personal driver. However, due to a car accident, Pisey cannot continue his occupation and finds himself confined to his home, where he resides, with his parents and grandmother, who work as rice farmers. He likes watching videos on social media and misses going out with his friends, working, and being active. On June 4th, another car crashed into him from the side, and Pisey fractured his right leg. He was taken to a nearby emergency hospital, where he had surgery to repair the fracture with external fixation. The fracture is healing well, but there is an infected wound at the site of the metalwork, and he can no longer afford treatment at the hospital where he was initially treated. He cannot walk or work and is in constant pain. When Pisey learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, he traveled there seeking treatment. On June 28th, surgeons at CSC will perform a skin graft procedure to help heal the wound and get him walking and able to work again. Now, Pisey needs help to fund this $487 procedure. Pisey shared that he hopes to be able to relieve the pain and get back to work as soon as possible.
