Please click the Compassion link above and consider donating to a fund for six-year-old Fatao's heart surgery? He lives in southwest Burkina Faso. They've known about the heart defect since he was a one year old, but the family of twelve could never afford to take care of it. His father is a security guard and his mother sells fritters in the market. They struggle to make ends meet. Now that Fatao is a sponsored child, his Compassion Child Development Center is arranging for him to have a life-saving heart surgery in India.
Only $5000 dollars is available for special medical care through the child development center's church partnership. When money beyond that is needed, the development center has to find it within other funds. Since Fatao's surgery and travel to an India hospital will cost $23,000, Compassion has written a blog post to request our help with Fatao's need. His heart works two to three times harder than a normal heart, to keep up with his body's needs. It will eventually stop, unable to keep up with his growth.
If you already have a Compassion account, this will take you about 4 minutes, and without an account, maybe 7 minutes. Giving any amount will help. Click on the post link above. There is a donate button within the post. You can also write a note to Fatao, which will be read to him by Compassion workers before or after his surgery. Thank you!
