Saving Body Parts and Lives...

December has already been a busy month!

Charles is home with his family, recovering from surgery #1.  We had a short visit with him a week after he got home and he was very thankful to our amazing supporters that he could begin the process of getting his life back.  Sonko stopped in to see him last week, but Charles was out trying to find work.  Will try to catch up with him before the end of the month. We are so blessed to be part of this process…and it’s you who allowed us to make a major impact on this family’s life! Thank you!

Because of your support, we could step into a few situations and save lives and body parts!
Body parts?

A young boy needed surgical care to save his foot…
A young woman needed surgery following a miscarriage…
A wife in a domestic violence situation needed a knife slash across her face attended to…

The government hospital workers – doctors and nurses are on strike.  Sonko came across a woman at a government hospital who was not being treated…she was alone and had no one to help her.  She was so ill she could not walk.  In her condition, Sonko wasn’t even sure she was going to live.  He and another man picked her up and carried her all the way to another hospital where they could start her treatment.

These things are only possible because of our wonderful supporters who give to our medical fund, Change for Change, and the compassionate, caring members of the Olalo team who step in to help those in need.

There are lives today in Oyugis, Kenya that will see the new year ring on in December 31 because we were there and able to help.

Thank you for making that all possible!
Merry
