An Unexpected Diagnosis: A Fight for Life

Donation protected
Hi everyone,
We're reaching out to you for help to save the life of a wonderful person named Kirinde, who has dedicated his life to helping 30 homeless children in Uganda. These children, ranging from 2 to 12 years old, live in a shelter that Kirinde founded and maintains with his own resources.
An Unexpected Diagnosis: A Fight for Life
Recently, Kirinde began experiencing severe headaches, nausea, and dizziness. He went to the doctor, and an examination revealed a subdural hematoma—a buildup of blood between his skull and brain. This is a consequence of an old injury he sustained in a motorcycle accident while bringing food to the children. He didn't think it was serious at the time, but now the hematoma poses a direct threat to his life.
Doctors have warned that without urgent neurosurgery, the hematoma could lead to severe brain damage and even death. The surgery requires $4,500.
What Will Happen to the Children Without Kirinde?
Kirinde is the sole hope for these children. He provides them with food, a roof over their heads, education, and medical care. Without him, they could be left on the streets, defenseless and hungry.
Among the children he cares for:
12 have only their father;
5 have only their mother;
6 are complete orphans;
7 are from extremely poor families who cannot care for them.
How You Can Help
Your donation will not only save Kirinde's life but also the future of these children. We are raising funds for Kirinde's surgery and rehabilitation. Every bit of help is invaluable.
$4,500 for the surgery.
Any amount for medications, post-operative recovery, and supporting his shelter.
We will be posting photo and video updates on his treatment and the children's lives so you can see how your donations are making a difference.
Help us save Kirinde so he can continue to help those who need it most. Thank you!
