This is Kamza, a sweet two-year-old from the Comoros Islands. She has congenital nevus on her scalp - a rare condition that presents as a dark-colored patch of skin at birth. These marks often become cancerous, and can be life-threatening if not treated properly.
Kamza lives in Kenya with her two older siblings and parents, where she has received initial medical care and treatment. However, the scar remains on her scalp and may become malignant if left untreated.
“I want my daughter to live a long and healthy life. I want her to go to school and play with other children,” her mother shares.
For $1,500, Kamza will receive surgery allowing her to grow up healthy, social, and strong. Let’s help Kamza to grow and develop healthily!
