Phanith is an 18-year-old student who lives in Takeo province in Cambodia with his parents and two siblings. His mother works in a clothing factory and his father works in construction. In December 2021, Phanith was involved in a motorcycle accident. He lost consciousness and suffered damage to his brachial piexus or the network of nerves that branch off from the spinal cord in the neck and extend down into his shoulder, arm, and hand. In addition, he fractured the lower bone of his left arm. At a local hospital in Takeo province, he underwent an open reduction and internal fixation of his left radius, to repair the fracture. However, he still suffers from weakness, loss of sensation, and paralysis in his left shoulder and arm. Phanith lives in constant pain because the hardware from his surgery has become exposed and is infected. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On April 5th, Phanith will undergo a hardware removal procedure. Phanith is able to contribute $80 but needs your help to raise another $304 to fund the procedure. The removal of the hardware will eliminate the source of the chronic infection and allow surgeons to concentrate on rehabilitation for his brachial plexus injury. Phanith shared, "I hope I will have no more infection, be able to move my left arm, and be able to return to finish school."

David is a husband and father of two from Cambodia. His family shares a home in Phnom Penn, and their household consists of David and his wife, their two daughters, David's parents, and David's younger sister. David suffered an accident that made him unable to work, so he stays home to watch the children and likes to check the news on his phone in his free time. David's wife works at a hair salon nearby. Their eldest daughter is eight years old and in the second grade and their youngest daughter is 3 years old. In December 2022, David suffered an electric shock and subsequent burns while working on an electric cable. As a result, he developed scars on his lower limb, a flexion contracture of his right knee, and wounds on his right ankle and thigh. It is difficult for David to walk without a crutch or wheelchair, and he is in pain. When David learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled to the care center to receive treatment. On April 23rd, surgeons at CSC will perform a burn contracture release surgery to finally relieve David of pain and help him walk easily again. David and his family contributed $100 to his care and need assistance raising $395 more to fund his surgery cost. David said: "I hope I can walk again without pain or swelling and return to work to support my family."

Borey is a 28-year-old father who lives alongside his wife in Takeo province. They recently celebrated the arrival of their daughter, now a delightful 10-month-old. They both work as wait staff in a local restaurant and take turns caring for their daughter. When not working or caring for his precious daughter, Borey likes to play basketball with his friends. On and off for the last 11 years, Borey has had an ear infection. He bought medicine at the local pharmacy, but the infection always returned. This infection caused the tympanic membrane, or the ear drum, in the right ear to perforate, which has caused hearing loss and tinnitus. His ear pain makes it hard for Borey to sleep at night, and his hearing loss makes it difficult to hear others speak at work. Borey worries he will not hear his daughter if she cries. Borey traveled to our medical partner's care center to receive treatment. On February 5th, he will undergo a myringoplasty in his right ear. During this operation, surgeons will close the perforation. Our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, is requesting $487 to fund this procedure, which covers medications, supplies, and inpatient care. Borey said: "I hope this operation will stop the ear infections and I can hear better than before."
