Chamara Madushanka, a father of two from a Sri Lankan village needs a kidney transplant, and his wife is ready to donate a kidney. But poverty keeps him walking 10 miles to the hospital for blood transfusion without getting the surgery done. 31 years old, Chamara is not able to support his family because his kidney disease is devouring his limited income. He has been going through this for several years and now in an almost critical phase. Doctors have advised him that a kidney transplant is required. Luckily his wife is a suitable donor. But this surgery requires him to stay admitted in Kandy National Hospital for several days and if he does so, although Sri Lanka’s free healthcare program may cover the expenses of the surgery, the family will face drastic financial difficulties. First of all, Chamara lives in a remote village in Galewela, and the surgery has to happen in Kandy. They will have to find a place to stay in Kandy for several days which they surely can't afford. And while being in Kandy or while being admitted to the hospital, Chamara won't be able to feed his small children. Right now they are surviving with one meal per day. And the elder child(girl) who should be going to school receives no education. His wife cannot help him financially due to the current economic condition in Sri Lanka making getting even the most underpaid jobs in the country impossible. Chamara knows that if he undergoes this surgery, his kids will go hungry for days. The only way they might survive is by begging for food. And there is no guarantee that Chamara will get any work after the lengthy recovery period he has to stay in bed. If Chamara delays his surgery, he might not live more than a few months. He cannot even afford public transport to go to the hospital twice a week for blood transfusion. If Chamara gets his surgery done, he will face severe financial problems and will not be able to afford even one meal for himself or his family. You can change this story for the better.

Gayan Pradeep is a father of three children. He has undergone a surgery due to a bone tumor in his legs and has no permanent source of income. His right knee and the adjacent bones have been removed and he is awaitng a "Proximal Tibia Megaprosthesis" surgery as a treatment. It is estimated that a sum of 1,430,000 LKR (7270 USD) will be incured for the said surgery and Gayan is not able to afford it. Gayan's wife, who herself is a heart patient, looks after their three children aged 13, 11 and 4 by selling snacks in a very small scale. This is not at all adequate to pay for their daily needs, let alone the surgery. 1.4 million rupees is a sum surely out of Gayan's reach, but if we all contribute, even in small amounts, it will add up. We will be able to help this man get back on a wheelchair if not his feet and then he can make sure that his children do not have to go hungry or drop out of school.

As soon as we heard about the little girl Sanuthi Yehansa who is suffering from Aplastic Anemia, we called her father to get more details. This little girl is currently hospitalized. Awaiting a bone marrow transplant with a hopeful smile on a hospital bed, Sanuthi is not much older than three years. As her operation requires a large sum of money, her farther is not able to save her life alone. It is up to you and me to help this little girl live by donating what we can so that her farther can arrange the LKR 5 500 000 needed for her surgery. Let's make sure Sanuthi's cute smile lasts a lot longer! A bone marrow transplant is performed to re-introduce bone marrow from a healthy person to the recipient who has bone marrow that has been damaged by a disease, an infection, or as a side effect of chemotherapy. This operation includes transplanting blood stem cells, which go to the bone marrow via the circulatory system and produce new blood cells, starting the growth of new bone marrow. Sanuthi is facing this procedure at such a young age. Letters from 'Gramasevaka' officer and the hospital are shown below for your reference. You can change this story for the better.
