Rabira is a 20-month-old toddler from Ethiopia, who loves playing with his toy cars and laughing with his parents. Rabira's mother and father have separated, and his father has taken it upon himself to raise Rabira and his one sibling. Rabira's father, who had to leave school when he was young, is starting to attend night classes, so that he can gain more education, and find work that will provide for his family. Soon after he was born, Rabira's father noticed that Rabira suffered from problems going to the bathroom. He brought Rabira to the nearby health center for evaluation, where it was determined that he had been born with hypospadias. If his condition is left untreated, Rabira would continue to experience urinary dysfunction, and might develop cancer or fertility issues later on. Due to financial constraints, Rabira's parents were unable to access care for him at the local hospital. Fortunately, the family was referred to our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, and now Rabira is scheduled to undergo corrective surgery on October 24th, at BethanyKids Myungsung Christian Medical Centre. African Mission Healthcare Foundation is requesting $1,293 to cover the total cost of Rabira's procedure and care. Rabira's mother said: “After the surgery, I hope he will be normal and pass urine normally as other children. And if he gets better I want him to go to school and graduate school. Become a person who earns well and supports himself. And when I get old I hope he will be able to support me.”

Kosal, who is 35 years old, lives in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. His three sisters, and the majority of his family members, reside in a rural province and earn their living as rice farmers. Around one month ago, Kosal developed a sinus infection. As a result of the infection, he experiences a fever, and swelling of his sinus, as well as pus and drainage from his nostrils. Our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, is helping Kosal access the treatment he needs to relieve the pressure in his sinus and drain the pus from his nose. On May 2nd, Kosal will undergo a preauricular sinus incision at Kien Khleang National Rehabilitation Centre, which will restore his ability to breathe comfortably. Kosal needs help to raise $297 to cover the cost of his procedure. Kosal shared, "I hope I can feel comfortable again and go back to my job feeling good."

Samnang is a 3-year-old toddler from Cambodia. He lives with his parents in Kandal province, where his mom, dad, and grandparents all work as rice farmers. Samnang's favorite things are playing hide-and-seek with his friends and eating fish noodle soup. Samnang was born with a small mass on the front of his head. The mass has been diagnosed as a lipoma - a benign soft, fatty lump that grows under the skin. His parents took him for a consultation one year ago, and the doctors suggested waiting one year to monitor the mass's growth. In the last six months, the mass has grown in size, and his family is worried it will continue to grow. Samnang traveled to our medical partner's care center to receive treatment. On August 9th, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), will remove the mass. Now, Samnang's family needs help to raise $273 to fund this procedure. They contributed $75 to his care. His grandmother said, "I hope my grandson can be happy and healthy, and we don't have to worry about him anymore."
