Soknov is a 25-year-old chicken farmer from Cambodia. He lives with his parents and a younger sister. His parents both work as rice farmers and his sister works in a shoe factory. In his free time, he likes checking his social media and resting at home. On August 2021, he was in a road traffic accident that resulted in a fracture of his right leg. He was taken to a nearby hospital where metalwork was placed on his femur and tibia. However, there are signs of infection, the fracture has not healed, and he is unable to walk without crutches. He is in chronic pain and unable to work. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On May 1st, Soknov will undergo a fracture repair procedure. Soknov is able to contribute $100 but needs your help to raise $383 more to fund this procedure. After surgery, he hopes he won't be in pain anymore. He is hopeful that he will be able to find a new job with better income to support his family.

Sam Ang lives with a group of friends in Kandaal province in Cambodia. He works as a truck driver. His family and siblings live nearby, where they run a small grocery stall on the roadside. In his free time, Sam Ang goes fishing in the Mekong River or checks the news on his phone. A previous injury that was left untreated is limiting his function on his right arm. He is also experiencing a loss of sensation and discomfort, making it difficult to drive long hours at his job. Surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, plan to do a nerve procedure to improve function and sensation in Sam Ang's arm. Surgery and physiotherapy will allow him to carry out his job and everyday activities without difficulty. Now Sam Ang and his family need $572 to fund his surgery, post-op medications, and physiotherapy. Sam Ang shared, "I hope I can improve my arm so I can go back to work and help support my family."

Ritchina is a 7-month-old baby girl from Haiti. She lives with both of her loving parents and her older brother. Ritchina has been diagnosed with hydrocephalus, a condition in which excess cerebrospinal fluid accumulates in the brain and increases intracranial pressure. As a result of her condition, Ritchina has been experiencing increasing head circumference. Without treatment, Ritchina will experience severe physical and developmental delays. Our medical partner, Project Medishare, is requesting $897 to cover the cost of surgery for Ritchina at Hospital Bernard Mevs that will treat her hydrocephalus. This is the only site in the country where this care is currently available and the procedure is scheduled to take place on January 4th. This critical treatment will drain the excess fluid from Ritchina's brain to reduce intracranial pressure and greatly improve her quality of life. With proper treatment, Ritchina will hopefully develop into a strong, healthy young girl. Her parents are hopeful that surgery will allow their child to grow up healthy.
