Rith is a two-year-old boy from Cambodia. He enjoys watching cartoons on television and playing with his toys at home.
Since birth, Rith has had a hemangioma on his lower left lip that has been growing in size. The mass often causes Rith pain, obstructs his eating, and is causing his teeth to develop irregularly.
Rith traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. Surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will remove the mass. Now, Rith needs help to raise $220 to fund this procedure.
