Len is a 65-year-old rubber farmer from Cambodia. She lives with her niece, who also works as a rubber farmer. In her free time, she enjoys caring for her niece's children and helping her niece with housework. On August 30th, 2026, Len was riding a motorcycle when it hit a dog, causing her to fall and fracture her left wrist. An X-ray confirmed a closed Barton fracture of the left distal radius. The fracture has caused pain, swelling, and stiffness in her left wrist, making it difficult for her to use her hand normally. These limitations also make it harder for her to carry out farming and household activities. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On September 2nd, Len will undergo a fracture repair procedure, which will stabilize and repair her fractured left wrist, helping reduce pain and restore movement and function in her hand. She can contribute $100, but needs help raising $500 more to fund her procedure and care. Len said, “I hope the surgery will help repair my wrist, reduce the pain and swelling, and allow me to use my hand normally again. I want to recover well so I can return to farming and continue taking care of my daily responsibilities.”

For sixteen years, 50-year-old Zione has suffered from uncomfortable gynecological symptoms that have affected her quality of life and overall health. "The pain is too much for me," Zione said. "So I don't sleep and don't have the peace of mind I used to have before." Her worsening condition has required her family to miss work to care for her, impacting the family's already modest earnings. For years, she sought a diagnosis and treatment but was unable to get the help she needed. Recently, Zione was reviewed at our medical partner's care center, Partners in Hope Medical Center and was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. She needs to undergo a hysterectomy. Zione and her husband’s combined income, from her work as a small-scale farmer and his work as a welder, is not enough to cover the cost of her surgery. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $1,363 to fund Zione's surgery on October 2nd. After the treatment, Zione will finally have relief after years of pain, missed sleep, unsuccessful treatments, and interruptions to her life and work.

Ty is a 24-year-old factory worker from Cambodia. His wife works as a footwear factory worker. His father is a rice farmer, and his mother works in a garment factory. In his free time, he enjoys playing volleyball with friends in his village. When he was 13 years old, Ty had an ear infection. This infection caused the tympanic membrane, or the eardrum, in his right ear to perforate. For this reason, Ty experiences chronic ear discharge, hearing loss, itchiness, and tinnitus or ringing in the ear. The condition has significantly affected his daily life. He has difficulty hearing and communicating with others, which often leads to frustration and emotional distress. It also affects his sleep and social interactions. Our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, is helping Ty receive treatment. On June 9th, he will undergo a myringoplasty procedure in his right ear. During this procedure, surgeons will close the perforation. He can contribute $75, but needs help raising $288 more needed for his procedure and care. Ty said, “I have lived with hearing problems since I was young. I hope this surgery will improve my hearing so I can communicate more easily and enjoy a better quality of life.”
