Ly is a retired car mechanic from Phnom Penh, Cambodia. His family includes four sons, two daughters, and eleven grandchildren. He lives in the city with his wife and youngest daughter, who works in a local restaurant. Ly enjoys passing his time tinkering with cars and keeping up with current events on his phone. About two years ago, Ly developed a cataract in his right eye, causing him to experience photophobia, tearing, and blurry vision. He has difficulty seeing things clearly, including colors and faces, and is worried about falling when walking, so he cannot go places on his own. He is also frustrated because he is unable to ride his motorbike or read the news on his phone due to the difficulty in viewing the screen. Fortunately, our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), can help. On May 11th, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in his right eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. CSC is requesting $253 to fund this procedure. Ly contributed $100 to his care. Ly shared: "After surgery, I hope I can see better, take care of myself and not worry about my eye anymore."

Jackline, who is 28 years old, is a small-scale farmer from Uganda. After her first husband passed away in 2019, Jackline married a second time in 2021 to a carpenter. They currently live with her husband's father, but are hoping to build a home for themselves and their family, especially as Jackline is pregnant with her fourth child. Jackline's doctors recommend that she deliver her child via a Caesarean section, because all three of her children were born in this manner, leaving her with scarring. The doctors feel that a C-section is the best way to ensure the safety of both Jackline and her baby. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is helping Jackline undergo a C-section on March 21st at Karoli Lwanga Hospital, Nyakibale. This procedure will cost $252, and Jackline needs your support to fund this procedure. Jackline says: “Hospital bills are my concern. I'm confident that my birth will go well if I will get support.”
