Nay is a 46-year-old construction worker from Cambodia. He lives in Battambang Province with his wife and two children. His wife works as a construction worker, and their children are in grades 8 and 9. In his free time, he enjoys planting vegetables around his home and chatting with his friends. On March 30, 2026, Nay sustained an electrical injury while working and fell from approximately three meters. He has burns on both hands and lower legs, causing pain and stiffness. The injury causes significant pain, stiffness, and difficulty performing daily activities, including working and caring for his family. When Nay learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled for two hours seeking treatment. On April 3rd, surgeons at CSC will perform a debridement procedure to remove damaged and infected tissue from the wound and help the wound heal properly. He can contribute $100, but needs help raising $317 more to fund his procedure and care. Nay said, “I hope this surgery will help me recover, relieve my pain, and allow me to return to work and take care of my family.”

Anaki is eight years old and a student from Malawi. He loves school and spends most of his free time playing with friends, laughing, and running as children do. He is the second-born of three children. His parents grow and sell vegetables. One week ago, while at school, Anaki climbed onto the wall of an incomplete structure and fell, landing badly on his left arm. He was in great pain and was taken home to his mother, who immediately brought him to the nearest health center. With limited resources, the health workers could only place his arm in a sling and refer him to our medical partner's care center, Nkhoma Hospital, for further care. It was seen that Anaki sustained a supracondylar fracture of his left forearm. Doctors determined that he would need an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) procedure to properly repair the injury and restore full use of his arm. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, can help. Anaki will undergo fracture repair surgery on February 3rd, and he needs help to raise $525 to fund this procedure and care. Anaki's mother said, “I pray that after this surgery, my son will heal well and return to school. We are very thankful to everyone willing to help us."

Mateo is a toddler from Bolivia. He is his parents' first child. He lives with his mom, who is a homemaker, and his dad, who works distributing soda. When he was born prematurely at 30 weeks, Mateo had to be in an incubator where doctors detected his heart condition. Mateo has a cardiac condition called tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), a combination of four heart conditions, including a hole between the two lower chambers of the heart, as well as a blockage that affects how blood flows out of the heart. As a result, Mateo does not get enough oxygen, leaving him weak and short of breath. On May 6th, he will undergo cardiac surgery at our medical partner's care center, Hospital del Niño Dr. Ovidio Aliaga Uría. During surgery, doctors will close the hole in his heart and remove the blockage so that blood can flow more normally. Mateo's family needs help to fund the costs of cardiac care and surgery. Our medical partner, International Cardiac Alliance, requests $1,500 to cover the cost of cardiac exams and diagnostics, surgical costs, follow-up care, and medications. Mateo's mother shared, "I'm grateful my child is going to receive his surgery so he can grow and be a healthy boy."
