Bora is a 20-year-old factory worker from Cambodia. He is married and lives in Kampong Cham Province with his wife, who works as an online seller, and their three-month-old son. His father is a furniture seller, and his mother stays at home to manage household tasks. In his free time, he enjoys playing badminton. On the 11th of December 2025, Bora was involved in a road traffic accident after crashing his car, which caused a closed fracture of his upper arm bone, near the elbow. After the accident, he was treated at a provincial hospital, where doctors performed an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) surgery and implanted a metal plate and screws in his right distal humerus to stabilize the fracture and support bone healing. Although his fracture healed after surgery, he later developed an infection around the implanted hardware. He now has a persistent draining wound (sinus) near the surgical site with discharge, as well as stiffness and limited movement of his right elbow. This affects his ability to use his arm comfortably for daily activities and work. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On August 5th, Bora will undergo a hardware removal procedure, which will involve removing the metal implants, washing out the infected area, and performing a culture to help control the infection, promote wound healing, and improve the function and movement of his right arm. He can contribute $37.50, but needs help raising $341 more to fund his procedure and care. Bora said, “I hope this surgery will remove the infection, allow my arm to heal properly, and help me regain better movement so I can return to my normal activities.”

Sakrorny is a 10-year-old third grader from Cambodia. He lives with his grandmother, a 60-year-old rice farmer, while his parents do labor work abroad to support the family. He has two younger siblings who live with his parents. He enjoys writing and reading, and in his free time, he likes playing football with his friends and eating fried chicken. In the future, he hopes to work in a big factory. In January, Sakrorny fell off a bike after hitting a stone on the road and injured his left leg. The following day, he developed swelling and pain and became unable to walk. X-rays revealed a bone fragment in his left leg, and he underwent surgery to remove it along with antibiotic cement spacer treatment. After surgery, he regained the ability to walk, although he still experiences some mild pain. He is now scheduled for a follow-up procedure to remove the spacer and undergo bone grafting to support further healing. Fortunately, on April 23rd, our medical partner, the Children's Surgical Centre, will assist Sakrorny in undergoing this procedure. This surgery will cost $600, and Sakrorny needs your support to fund the surgery. Sakrorny's aunt said, “After the first surgery, I was relieved that he could walk again, but it still worries me that he has some pain. I hope with time and proper care, he will fully recover, walk without pain, and live a normal, active life like other children.”

Serey is a three-year-old boy from Cambodia. He lives with his parents and three older siblings. His father works as a construction worker, and his mother works in a mango jam factory. His siblings are all students. In his free time, he enjoys playing with toy cars and eating all kinds of soup, especially lemongrass sour soup. Serey was born with syndactyly of both hands, meaning his 3rd and 4th fingers on both hands are fused. This makes it difficult for him to use his hands comfortably and affects his confidence around others. Fortunately, on April 23rd, our medical partner, the Children's Surgical Centre, will assist Serey in undergoing syndactyly repair surgery to separate and release the fused fingers. This procedure will cost $462, and Serey needs your support to fund the surgery. Serey's father said, “After the surgery, I hope that my son will be able to use his hands more freely and comfortably in his daily life. I also hope he will gain confidence, no longer feel shy about his appearance, and be able to interact and play happily with others like any other child.”
