Narin is an eight-year-old student from Cambodia. She lives near Phnom Penh with her parents and two older brothers. Her eldest brother works as a car repairer, and her second brother is a first-year university student majoring in English. Her father sells snacks, and her mother works as a helper at a pagoda near their home. Narin is currently enrolled in Grade 3. Her favorite subject is mathematics. When she grows up, she dreams of becoming a teacher. In her free time, she enjoys playing with slime with her friends and eating grilled meat. For the past one year, Narin has been experiencing hearing loss, noisy breathing, and occasional loud snoring. The symptoms make it difficult for her to concentrate in class because she cannot hear clearly. The condition also affects her communication with family and friends and may impact her learning and daily activities. Narin was recently diagnosed with enlarged tonsils and adenoids, which, if not treated, will cause her symptoms to persist and possibly intensify over time. Our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, is requesting $345 to fund a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy for Narin, which is scheduled to take place on March 5th. Surgeons will remove her tonsils and adenoids, hopefully relieving Narin of her symptoms and helping her live much more comfortably. Her father said, “After the surgery, I truly hope this treatment will help her hear clearly, breathe comfortably, and grow up healthy and confident.”

Derly is a 10-year-old girl who lives with her mother in a village in Antioquia, Colombia. She lives with congenital glaucoma, a condition that has required ongoing medical care since she was very young. In addition, about one year ago, she was evaluated by a pediatric dentist, who found multiple deep dental cavities. Since then, Derly has remained under observation. However, the progression of the disease has been unfavorable, leading to significant complications in her oral health. Currently, Derly experiences intense and persistent pain, inflammation, as well as difficulty eating and falling asleep, which impacts her quality of life. The medical team has advised for her to undergo dental treatment under general anesthesia to ensure a comprehensive, safe, and effective procedure. Derly will be receiving support from our medical partner, Clinica Noel. She is scheduled to undergo treatment on May 20th, and Clinica Noel is requesting $1,109 to cover the cost of this procedure. Derly’s mother expressed: "I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support; it is a great blessing. Thanks to this noble gesture, Derly will be able to receive the treatment she so desperately needs and, with it, regain her smile and the quality of life that every child deserves. May God reward you."

Selix is a 68-year-old security guard and small-scale farmer from Malawi. He is married with four adult children. He and his wife continue working hard to meet household upkeep and basic needs. In 2025, Selix was diagnosed with a right inguinal hernia, a condition that occurs when abdominal tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the lower abdominal muscles, causing a bulge in the groin area. He has been experiencing severe pain and frequent swelling episodes, which interfere with his daily activities. Fortunately, on April 9th, Selix will undergo hernia repair surgery with the help of our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare. Selix is contributing to his surgery treatment, but needs an additional $575 to fund the procedure. He says, "Kindly help me to get better, so I can continue supporting myself, as my children are already supporting their families. I wish to age peacefully, without pain."
