Mi is a 67-year-old moto repairman from Cambodia. He is married and lives with his wife, who takes care of the household. They have six children, all of whom are married and live in a nearby village. They visit their parents from time to time. In his free time, Mi enjoys looking after his cows and chickens. In December 2025, Mi was involved in a traffic accident between two motorbikes, which left him with a fracture in his left hip. He initially sought traditional treatment for six months, but his condition did not improve. Since then, he has continued to experience hip pain and difficulty walking. He now relies on crutches for support and struggles to put weight on his left leg. Because of the injury, he has been unable to return to his moto repair work and earn a living. After a friend recommended Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), Mi decided to seek further treatment. On November 2nd, doctors will perform a total hip replacement (THR) on his left hip to relieve his pain and improve his mobility. Mi and his family can contribute $50 and need support for the remaining $1,450. Mi said, “I hope the surgery will help me walk normally again without needing crutches. I have been unable to work since the accident, and I want to recover so I can return to fixing tires and support my family.”

Eveles is 51 years old and a mother of five from Malawi. She and her children are all farmers. Seven months ago, Eveles started to experience abnormal bleeding. She has been diagnosed with Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia, an abnormal growth of precancerous cells on the surface of the cervix. It has a high risk of progressing into invasive cervical cancer if left untreated or unattended. She needs to undergo a hysterectomy, a procedure in which surgeons will remove her uterus. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $1,363 to fund Eveles's surgery. On July 1st, she will undergo gynecological surgery at our medical partner's care center, Partners in Hope Medical Center. Once recovered, Eveles will be able to resume her daily activities free of pain. Eveles shared, "Your support will save my life and help me to concentrate; I am so worried about my health; I need to resume farm work to survive."

Oul is a 65-year-old rice farmer from Prey Veng province in Cambodia. He is married, and his wife is also a rice farmer. They have two daughters, one son, and seven grandchildren. Their children work in construction and garment factories. Oul's favorite hobbies are watching boxing on television and participating in ceremonies. About one year ago, Oul developed a cataract in his left eye, causing him to experience itchiness, tearing, and blurry vision. A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye, so it is like looking through a frosty or fogged-up window. 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. When Oul learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, he traveled for three hours seeking treatment. On August 10th, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in his left eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Oul contributed a $25 co-pay toward his care and needs assistance raising $238 more to fund his surgery. Oul shared his hopes that, after surgery, his vision will improve so he can easily return to growing rice, travel to distant places, and no longer worry about his eyes.
