Akankwasa is a baby from Uganda. He is one year old, has one sibling, and is the second born in his family. His father is a builder, and his mother is a small-scale farmer.
For the past two months, Akankwasa has had a rapidly growing swelling in a sensitive area. This swelling causes him pain and discomfort.
Akankwasa traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On March 6, surgeons will remove the mass. Now, Akankwasa needs help to raise $187 to fund this procedure.
Akankwasa’s mother says, “I hope my son will be relieved of this condition and I too continue with farming for the support to my family.”
