Manasse is a 13-year-old student from Kenya. He is the second born in a family of four children, with two brothers and a sister. His oldest sibling is in high school, the other two are in preschool and second grade. Neither of Manasse's parents were able to complete their schooling. Manasse works hard in school, and he would like to be a doctor in future. Manasse's family has a piece of land where they farm. They have one dairy cow to produce milk and some free-range chickens. Farming is the main source of income for the family, and they use it to pay school fees for the children and to buy other necessities. Manasse's family is fortunate to have electricity because it's uncommon for the area. Since last October, Manasse has had bilateral hydrocele, which is caused by fluid buildup in the scrotal area. He was taken to a nearby hospital where he was treated and went home. The problem recurred a few months later and he was taken back, an ultrasound was completed, and he was referred to our medical partner's care center for treatment. Without treatment, there will be risk of infection and abnormal growth. During the visit, Manasse's father said that their family didn't currently have access to health insurance. Fortunately, on February 29th, Manasse will undergo hernia repair surgery at our medical partner's care center. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $733 to fund Manasse's surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably and confidently. Manasse father says, "Please help my son.”
