Help Ngoni Get Urgent Dental Care

Hi, my name is Tammy Gonzaga, and I work as a campus minister at Chapman University. I’m raising funds for Ngoni, an international graduate student from Africa studying Food Science. I’ve gotten to know Ngoni through my role on campus—he’s a kind, hardworking student who recently faced a serious dental crisis.

Ngoni had been experiencing severe dental pain, but thanks to your generous support, the first two phases of his treatment are now complete, and he is no longer in pain. A total of $1,203 has already been paid to the dentist. One final, more minor procedure remains, estimated at approximately $350, and will be completed this summer to ensure his long-term dental health.

How the funds will be used:

All funds raised go directly toward Ngoni’s dental care. I am collecting the funds on his behalf, and I will be paying the dental provider directly for all procedures.

Currently, Ngoni has not been added as a GoFundMe beneficiary because of the complexity of setting up direct bank transfers for international students. However, I will personally ensure all funds are used solely for his dental expenses and will provide documentation or receipts upon request for full transparency.

Thank you for your generosity, encouragement, and support for this exceptional young man as he continues his academic journey under challenging circumstances.

With gratitude,

Tammy Gonzaga
