What hope could she possibly have?
When Aashika was a baby of just 3 months, she suffered a terrible accident. A kitchen fire spread to the hammock where she was sleeping, badly burning both of her feet.
Her injuries were so severe, she lost the toes on her left foot. And when she grew old enough to walk, she cried out with pain at each step.
Her family lives in a remote part of Nepal, far away from the specialist care she needs. And they are too poor to afford the journey to Kathmandu, let alone pay for an assessment or surgery.
What hope could they possibly have?
Your generous gift today can let hope live for a child like Aashika, and provide her with access to the life-changing orthopaedic care she needs and deserves.
You can help a child like Aashika walk
We first met Aashika on an outreach medical visit to her remote village, high up in the Nepal mountains.
And when we told her mum Sushila that surgery could help Aashika walk without pain, and that everything – assessment, transport, surgery and follow-up care – could all be paid for by a generous stranger, she was overcome with gratitude and emotion.
For the first time, they had hope for the future.
Sushila said gratefully,
“I would like to express my heartfelt thanks. Before this, we did not know what to do, but the medical camp has made everything possible. I feel truly happy!”
This Easter, as we remember the living hope we have in Jesus Christ, please donate now to let that living hope reach another child like Aashika.
Transform the lives of children in need
Thanks to a generous person like you, Aashika and her mum travelled all the way to Kathmandu. It was a long and difficult journey, but they finally arrived – brimming with hope.
As soon as they arrived, the medical team at our partner organisation were able to assess and operate on Aashika’s disabled foot, so that she can now walk on it without pain!
She is absolutely delighted and cannot wait to get back to school with her peers.
None of this would’ve been possible without the kindness of caring people like you.
Right now, there’s another child who is waiting and praying that you could reach out with a generous gift today to help transform their life in the same way.
Please give this Easter to let hope live for another child like Aashika and provide them with life-changing orthopaedic care.
“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, all things have become new!”
