Help alleviate Samir’s pain

Samir’s story

Samir is a bright 9-year-old boy from Sudan who dreams of playing football like his heroes – but his childhood has been shaped by a painful injury that continues to hold him back. He urgently needs corrective surgery to restore movement in his right arm and relieve the daily discomfort he has lived with his whole life.

When Samir was born, he suffered a neonatal brachial plexus injury – a condition that damaged the network of nerves controlling his arm. Despite years of physiotherapy, the lack of mobility continues to frustrate him. As he grows older, he has become increasingly self-conscious, often hiding his arm from others.

Samir is smart, social, and full of energy. He loves school, video games, and spending time with his two sisters. But behind his cheerful nature is a boy who longs to participate in the world with confidence – to play, write, and move without pain or embarrassment.

“We just want him to feel like other children – to not have to hide his arm or hold back from the things he loves” says Samir’s father.

Your support can help Samir access the life-changing treatment he needs and give him the chance to live without limits.

Donate today and help Samir live a life full of possibility.

Every donation makes a difference!
