Paras is 18 years old and recently broke his left leg in a tractor accident. Paras lives with his parents, two sisters, and one younger brother in Far-Western Nepal, an area of the world where medical care is often far away and expensive to access.
Paras’ family depends on farming to support themselves, but subsistence agriculture doesn’t generate the disposable income they’d need to fix Paras’ leg.
Because of the fracture, Paras is unable to help his family with labor or do normal everyday tasks to care for himself. He reports constant pain and swelling. Needless to say, he is eager to get back on his feet!
For $1,040, our partner, Nyaya Health, can get Paras surgery to reset his broken leg. Let’s help this kid regain his mobility and resume his normal life.

Paras received surgery to fix his broken leg.
The operation to reset Paras’s leg was a great success! Paras is recovering well and will be walking normally when he is out of casting. Thank you for helping this young man get back on his feet!
Paras expressed his gratitude to our medical partners, “As we are from low middle class family, we don’t have the ability to expend large amount of money for this kind of treatment. Now, I will be able to walk again.”
