Anita is a 23-year-old woman from Kenya. A single mother of two, Anita washes clothes to support herself and her children.
Two years ago, Anita fell, dislocated her hip, and broke her ankle. As is common in Kenya, where there is little “pre-hospital care” like ambulances, good samaritans took her to a hospital. She received treatment for her dislocated hip, but her ankle remained untreated because she could not fund the costs.
For $1200, Anita will receive an ankle fusion surgery that will help her walk again. Anita says, “I want to get well so that I can take care of my children. They have no one else to depend on.”
Let’s help raise the money for Anita’s surgery so she can heal from her fall and care for her children!
