Enchali is a joyful 23-month-old boy from Ethiopia who lives with his mother and grandmother. Soon after his birth, local conflict in their home area forced them to flee their home and farmland, leaving the family displaced. Despite the challenges, Enchali is known for his bright smile, active nature, and love for playing with his friends. He enjoys running around and dreams of becoming a police officer one day. Since birth, Enchali has been experiencing swelling and discomfort in his groin area, especially whenever he cried, ran, or played. His mother first noticed the swelling when he was around one year old and became deeply worried as it continued to grow. With limited financial resources and little understanding of the condition, she sought for help and learnt about our medical partner's care center, BethanyKids Myungsung Christian Medical Centre (BKMCM). After a thorough examination at BKMCM, Enchali was diagnosed with an 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 needs surgery to prevent his symptoms from getting worse. Fortunately, Enchali has been scheduled for hernia repair surgery on May 21st. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $512 to fund Enchali's surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably and confidently. Enchali’s mother says, "Thank you so much. I hope he will be well soon. I’m truly grateful for the opportunity for my child.”

Sokha is a 63-year-old woman from Cambodia. She lives on the outskirts of Phnom Penh with her sister, who works as a cleaner. She has one son who works at a motorbike company. In her free time, she enjoys cooking and doing household chores. In April 2025, Sokha was involved in a road traffic accident that caused a fracture to her left wrist. She was treated at a government hospital, where she underwent surgery to stabilize the fracture using a metal plate and screws. Since then, she has experienced persistent pain in her wrist and fingers, making it difficult to perform daily tasks like cooking and household chores, and significantly affecting her independence and quality of life. Fortunately, on April 22nd, our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, will help Sokha undergo a hardware removal procedure — a surgery to remove the plate and screws from her wrist, which will allow her to use her hand more comfortably again. She can contribute $50, but needs help to raise $328 more to fund her procedure and care. Sokha said, “Since the accident, I have had constant pain in my wrist and fingers, and it makes it very hard for me to do my daily work. I hope that after treatment, I can use my hand normally again without pain and return to my everyday life.”

Keol is a three-month-old boy from Ethiopia. He is the third child in his family and lives with his parents and two brothers. His father sells vegetables to support the family, while his mother is a housewife. He is very sociable and loves playing with his older brother. When Keol was a month old, his parents noticed a swelling in his groin area. At the hospital, he was diagnosed with an 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. Keol was then placed on a waiting list for surgery. The three-month wait has been a difficult and uncertain period for the family, particularly for his mother, who shared that she reached out to others around her for reassurance during this time. Keol's parents finally got the call they had been waiting for, and were referred to our medical partner's care center, BethanyKids Myungsung Christian Medical Centre (BKMCM). Keol's surgery has been scheduled for May 4th, and once completed, will allow Keol to live a healthier life. Now, Keol's family needs help to fund this $512 procedure. Keol’s father said, "Thanks to Jesus Christ and the donors. I continue to hope and pray for Keol, and I truly believe he’s in a good condition.”
