Twinomwe is a 44-year-old farmer and a married father to three sons and four daughters who are all still in school. He currently earns a living through small scale farming. The majority of his income comes from growing tomatoes, which has allowed him to afford school fees for his children. His wife is also a small scale farmer. For two years, Twinomwe has had a right inguinal hernia. He experiences a sharp pain whenever he coughs or laughs, and when he is urinating. Fortunately, on April 6th, Twinomwe will undergo hernia repair surgery at our medical partner's care center. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $230 to fund his surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably and confidently. Twinomwe shared, “I hope that I will be able to undergo my surgery and regain my health to continue with farming so I can educate my children, because I don’t want them to lack education like I do.”

Senghong is an 18-year-old driver who lives in a province outside of the capital city of Cambodia with his older sister and parents. Senghong's mother is a factory worker, his father is a rice farmer, and his sister is studying at university. Two years ago, Senghong stopped school after 10th grade and has been working as a driver for a construction company. In his free time he enjoys playing football, volleyball, meeting up with friends, and listening to music. In December 2020, Senghong was in a motor vehicle accident that caused a mal-union fracture of his right wrist. It is difficult for him to use this hand now and he is in chronic pain. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On March 15th, Senghong will undergo a fracture repair procedure, which will cost $465. This procedure will allow him to use his hand and start working again. Senghong said, "I am thankful for your help and I hope I can return to work soon once I am healed."

Pheap is a 25-year old farmer with one brother and two sisters. All of his siblings are married. Pheap's father passed away years ago and he now lives with his mother who is a farmer. When he is not farming, Pheap enjoys playing football and listening to music. While driving a truck, Pheap was in an accident that caused an open wound on his left foot. He went to a clinic where the wound was cleaned and dressed, but within a few days the wound became infected. By the time he came to our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), the toe was swollen and he had lost sensation in his left big toe. The toe must be amputated to avoid the spread of gangrene. On April 6th, surgeons from CSC will amputate the toe to protect his foot from further infection and preserve his mobility. Now, Pheap needs help to fund this $446 procedure. Pheap shared, "I hope my foot will heal well so I can return to work again."
