Edy is a cheerful and energetic 13-year-old from Guatemala. For the past three years, Edy has suffered from an inguinal hernia. After walking several kilometers from his rural community to a local health center, physicians advised Edy that he must have the hernia removed.
Edy loves to run and play soccer, but his condition leaves him unable to play with his friends. His father explains the great pain he feels in witnessing his son’s suffering. Unfortunately, Edy’s family is too poor to afford his procedure on their own.
Partner for Surgery is hoping to raise $350 to fund Edy’s surgery costs. Your contributions will provide him with proper treatment and the opportunity for the happy, healthy life every child deserves!
