Sadly, it’s too late to help Kajal’s father… But there’s still time to help Kajal.
7-year-old Kajal comes up with an exciting new dream just about every day!
Her father Babulal says…
“Sometimes when she comes home from school, she says to me, ‘Father, I want to become a doctor’ and some days she says she wants to be police.”
But the tragic truth is – she will never get the chance to realise her dreams, unless someone like you makes the surgery she needs possible.
This Easter, as we remember Christ’s sacrifice and resurrection, will you help Kajal escape a lifetime of pain, prejudice and poverty before it’s too late?
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”
1 Peter 1:3
Kajal lives in a remote region of Nepal where treatment for conditions like bowlegs isn’t readily available. And even if it was, her family couldn’t afford it.
And tragically, Kajal is not the only one in her family who knows firsthand the pain and prejudice of living with bowlegs.
Her father Babulal was born with the same condition. And Kajal’s young brother Omkar too.
As Babulal says…
“My father and I have the same condition as my children. But because of poverty and our poor economic condition we couldn’t have the treatment and it is too late.”
Babulal shares how he felt when he found out both his children had bowlegs too…
“I was heartbroken because I have already faced the same issue. The pain, the stigma that’s attached and will follow… I suffer a lot by seeing their struggle.”
Despite his own pain, Babulal works hard selling crops, doing everything he can just to put food on the table for his family. There’s simply no extra money to pay for specialist medical treatment.
As Babulal explains…
“We will not be able to afford treatment. With my condition I am unable to lift heavy load or work more so it is hard to do more employment and earn more money.”

At Easter, I’m filled with hope remembering how Christ defeated death – as it says in Romans 6:4…
“…just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.”
Please celebrate new life this Easter by helping children like Kajal and Omkar escape a future of pain, prejudice and poverty.
