Chhaya is an 11-year-old student from Nepal that lives with her parents and siblings. She studies in grade three. Chhaya’s family struggles to make a living. They farm and sell firewood. This income is not enough to last them even for six months of the year.
Chhaya was grazing her cattle when she slipped and broke her right hand. Her hand has swollen and it’s been painful since. Not only does she need assistance to do basic day activities, but she has also been missing school and cannot help with chores in the house.
$195 will cover the costs of the care Chhaya needs to properly treat her fractured hand, including an x-ray, cast, and physiotherapy.
Chhaya’s father says, “I hope Chhaya’s treatment happens soon.”

Chhaya was successfully treated for his fractured hand.
Chhaya is doing great! His fractured bones were realigned correctly and secured in their right place. Post-surgery, Chhaya is at home with his family resting. After a few weeks of resting, he’ll start physiotherapy to regain mobility, and will have to be careful and limit his mobility as he continues to heal. In time, he is expected to regain full mobility and have no residual deformities.
“I am very happy that Chhaya’s treatment went well!” shares Chhaya’s father.
