Sokkhoeun is a 54-year-old construction worker from Cambodia. He is married and has one daughter who is studying in Grade Four. His wife sells snacks at a local market. In his free time, he enjoys watching the news. Two weeks ago, Sokkhoeun was involved in a road accident while trying to navigate a curve, causing his motorcycle to skid and fall. The accident caused fractures to his right humerus and both bones in his forearm, leaving his arm severely injured. He experiences significant pain and is unable to use his arm, which has greatly affected his ability to work and provide for his family. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On February 3rd, Sokkhoeun will undergo a fracture repair procedure, which will restore the use of his arm, allowing him to return to work and support his family. He can contribute $100, but needs help to raise $500 to fund his procedure and care. Sokkhoeun said, “My hope is that this surgery will restore the use of my hand so I can work again and provide for my family.”

Anaki is eight years old and a student from Malawi. He loves school and spends most of his free time playing with friends, laughing, and running as children do. He is the second-born of three children. His parents grow and sell vegetables. One week ago, while at school, Anaki climbed onto the wall of an incomplete structure and fell, landing badly on his left arm. He was in great pain and was taken home to his mother, who immediately brought him to the nearest health center. With limited resources, the health workers could only place his arm in a sling and refer him to our medical partner's care center, Nkhoma Hospital, for further care. It was seen that Anaki sustained a supracondylar fracture of his left forearm. Doctors determined that he would need an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) procedure to properly repair the injury and restore full use of his arm. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, can help. Anaki will undergo fracture repair surgery on February 3rd, and he needs help to raise $525 to fund this procedure and care. Anaki's mother said, “I pray that after this surgery, my son will heal well and return to school. We are very thankful to everyone willing to help us."

Sopheap is a 49-year-old construction worker from Kampong Cham Province, Cambodia. He is married and lives with his wife, who sells Khmer cakes. In his free time, he enjoys listening to music and playing volleyball. About one month ago, Sopheap developed a cataract in his right eye — a clouding of the eye's lens that causes blurry vision — leaving him with pain, tearing, and difficulty seeing faces and colors clearly. He has become worried about falling and is no longer able to go places on his own. Fortunately, on June 17th, our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, will help Sopheap undergo cataract surgery that will help him see better. He can contribute $100, but needs help raising $163 to fund his procedure and care. Sopheap said, "I hope after surgery my eye can see better, stop the pain, so I can go back to working again."
