Srors is a student and the only child in her family. Her parents are divorced and since childhood she has been living with an NGO in Kandal Province. She enjoys reading books, exercising, watching TV, swimming, and listening to music. She is completing 12th grade in public school and her best subject is math. Srors was burned all over the body by an oil lamp when she was three years old. After the accident her family took her to a hospital in Phnom Penh for one year of treatment. When she was 17, she was operated on again for related skin contractures. Now, she has come to our medical partner Children's Surgical Centre (CSC) because of unhealed tissue on her left knee. It is difficult for her to walk, and she is in pain. On April 5th, surgeons at CSC will perform a skin graft procedure to to help her walk easily again. Now, Srors needs help to fund this $474 procedure. Srors says, "I hope I can heal quickly and return to school."

Philip is a charming, friendly, and talkative three-year-old boy, and the youngest child in a family of six children. Philip's family has experienced financial challenges, and they are supported by their church. Philip does not attend school yet, but some of his siblings have their education are sponsored and are doing well in school. Philip has been diagnosed with bilateral genu valgus, a condition in which the knees angle inward and touch one another when the legs are straightened. The condition is typically caused by an excessive accumulation of fluoride in the bones, which often stems from contaminated drinking water. As a result, he has difficulty walking. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare (AMH), is helping Philip receive medical treatment. On April 8th, he will undergo corrective surgery at AMH's care center. Treatment will hopefully restore Philip's mobility, allowing him to attend school, participate in a variety of activities, and greatly decreasing his risk of future complications. Philip’s mother shared, "please help my son, he is struggling to walk."

Chhoeun is a 45-year-old rice farmer. He is married and has one daughter and three sons. His wife is a garment worker at a local factory, and his children are students. When Chhoeun is not working in the fields, he likes to play basketball with friends or his children. One year ago, Chhoeun developed a cataract in his right eye, causing him photophobia, tearing, and blurry vision. As a result, 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 Chhoeun learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled for three and a half hours seeking treatment. On May 2nd, doctors will perform cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in his right eye. After recovery, Chhoeun will be able to see clearly. CSC is requesting $253 to fund this procedure. Chhoeun shared with us, "After surgery, I hope my eye can see clearly again. I hope to easily plant rice and go out by myself without difficulty."
