Shine is 29 years old and a small-scale farmer from Uganda. She grows food crops such as beans, potatoes, and maize, while her husband earns a living through brick‑making. They work hard to support their three young children. During her free time, she enjoys cooking, and her happiest moment each day is when the whole family sits together to share a meal after a long day in the fields. Shine is pregnant, and her doctors recommend that she deliver via a caesarean section because of a high-risk pregnancy. This way, doctors can ensure the safety of both mother and child. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is helping Shine undergo a C-Section on March 12th. This procedure will cost $252, and Shine needs your support. Shine says, “I lay all my hope for the success of my surgery upon you because other than that, I have nowhere to get the money they need for my surgery. I kindly appeal for your support.”

Vili is a 58-year-old accounts officer from Malawi. He is married with four grown children. Due to worsening pain from his condition, he is no longer able to work, and his wife, a primary school teacher, has since become the sole breadwinner for the family. Two years ago, Vili was diagnosed with a right inguinal hernia. Over time, the swelling became more frequent and increasingly painful, affecting his concentration and eventually forcing him to stop working altogether. Fortunately, on May 6th, Vili will undergo hernia repair surgery with the help of our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare. He is raising $575 to fund the surgery, which will allow him to live more comfortably and confidently. "God has shown me Mercy to reach this far, and I have hope that your support will change my life. I am patiently waiting for your consideration," said Vili.

Sokkhoeun is a 54-year-old construction worker from Cambodia. He is married and has one daughter who is studying in Grade Four. His wife sells snacks at a local market. In his free time, he enjoys watching the news. Two weeks ago, Sokkhoeun was involved in a road accident while trying to navigate a curve, causing his motorcycle to skid and fall. The accident caused fractures to his right humerus and both bones in his forearm, leaving his arm severely injured. He experiences significant pain and is unable to use his arm, which has greatly affected his ability to work and provide for his family. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On February 3rd, Sokkhoeun will undergo a fracture repair procedure, which will restore the use of his arm, allowing him to return to work and support his family. He can contribute $100, but needs help to raise $500 to fund his procedure and care. Sokkhoeun said, “My hope is that this surgery will restore the use of my hand so I can work again and provide for my family.”
