Margaret is a mother of four from Kenya. She works at a food packaging company, and sends the extra money she makes home to her husband.
Margaret noticed a small lump in her breast in April of 2016, and sought treatment at a local hospital. A biopsy was recommended, and she was later diagnosed with breast cancer.
In order to stop the cancer from spreading, Margaret needs a mastectomy. Seeking treatment through our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, she is now scheduled to receive her mastectomy on June 14. She is requesting $816 to cover the total cost of her procedure and care.
Margaret said, “I want to be well and continue working to help my husband and family.”
