Nar is a four-year-old girl from Burma. She lives with her parents, grandparents, and two aunts in Mawlamyine City in Mon State.

Just before she turned two, her mother noticed a small lump on her neck. The mass became larger as she grew. Her mother took her to several hospitals for possible treatment. At our medical partner’s care center, her doctor recommended a surgery to remove the benign tumor.

She is now scheduled to undergo mass removal surgery on August 27. Her family is requesting $1,500 to cover the total cost of her procedure and care.

Hajji is a small scale farmer from Uganda. He is married to two wives with thirty-two children. Some have completed studies but unemployed, others are causal laborers while others are still in school. Hajji currently survives on small scale farming but was a trader before he retired. Since Eight months ago, Hajji has had a hydrocele, which is a swelling in a sensitive area. This hydrocele causes him pain and discomfort. Fortunately, on September 10, he will undergo hydrocele repair surgery at our medical partner's care center. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $139 to fund Hajji's surgery.
