The goal of this project is to improve Anthony's life by having a Hernia procedure. Anthony is a grade 7 student residing in Eastern Samar, Philippines. He has Hernia, an internal organ that pushes through a weak spot in a muscle or tissue, particularly on the child's scrotum. This should be treated immediately. This will cover the expenses for his check-ups, the actual procedure, consultations, laboratory tests, and other expenses related to the procedure.
Challenge
The child was born healthy and his condition was not yet obvious until he became 3 years old. However, the child's attending physician noticed something unusual on his scrotum area. It is getting bigger than the normal size. It was confirmed that the child has Hernia. during the GN Annual Medical Check-up, the surgeon suggested an immediate operation to cure the child's hernia. This was not conducted due to financial challenges on the side of the family.
Long-Term Impact
Anthony will have more opportunities to live a better life as a result of his surgery.
