Support Melda Banyai’s Recovery Journey

Help Melda Banyai Get the Care She Deserves

On July 7th, 2024, while celebrating her mother's 90th birthday in the Philippines, Melda Banyai suffered a severe stroke. During her heartfelt welcoming speech, the unexpected happened, and she was immediately hospitalized. The costs of medical care in the Philippines, especially in private hospitals, are overwhelming and continue to rise daily.
