Restoring Fatima’s Smile!
Fatima’s precious smile slowly faded, as her body withered away. This all started when the child was diagnosed with jaw cancer. She was transferred to Turkey to get treated, and stayed in the hospital for a month. After the month passed, Fatima and her grandmother had no where to stay in and ended up as guests for a few days in the home of a generous family.
After hearing the story of the sick child and her grandmother, and learning that they are left on their own with no source of income and no provider in a foreign country, we became determined to take action. Thus, their case was published on our website and we set up a fundraiser for them, through which $550 were collected. Thankfully, these donations enabled us to secure them a place to stay in and some nutritional supplies for the child. They were also provided with some cash assistance to help them with their daily needs. We also got Fatima some gifts to bring joy into her sad heart. The best part is that we were able to take in the family into our humanitarian sponsorship department, through which they would be provided with long-term monthly support.
Today, the humanitarian sponsorship department provides 148 families with monthly support. The sponsored families include orphaned children, ill people, abandoned women, and other vulnerable individuals. The support they are getting from generous donors from all over the world is restoring their hope in life and enabling them to get back on their feet.
