The goal of this project is to improve Racejey's life by having an Imperforate procedure. 3-year-old Racejey resides in Eastern Samar, Philippines. He was born with an Imperforate Anus, a congenital flaw that develops when a baby is still in the early stages of pregnancy. After birth, there is no way to let the feces out. This will cover the expenses for his check-ups, the actual procedure, consultations, laboratory tests, and other expenses related to the procedure.
Challenge
After birth, the doctor found out that Racejey had a missing anus. He was immediately operated at Eastern Visayas Regional Medical Center to avoid other complications to the child. Since the family cannot afford to buy colostomy bags, the family utilizes plastic wrappers as replacements. Racejey was able to join the list of Good Neighbors-sponsored children last December 2021. Since then, the family had high hopes that GN could help them financially with the child's operation.
Long-Term Impact
Racejey will have more opportunities to live a better life as a result of his surgery.
