Andy lives in Kenya and has clubfoot, and in Kenya the sort of specialty medical care Andy needs is scarce. There are 100 million children in the world just like Andy who have little hope for the future.
Many can't play with their friends or go to school, and when Andy grows up, things that we hope for like marriage or finding a job will be difficult or impossible...all because Andy has a curable disability! But you can change Andy's life forever.

About Andy

Andy is such a responsible guy...the first time we met him, we found him telling the other kids the rules for the playroom and that they had to get permission before heading in there. He is here due to his spina bifida and clubfoot. The course of treatment for clubfoot would usually be straight forward. We would operate, cast, and put him in braces, but because of his spina bifida, there is risk in that his feet might not heal quickly or respond as well. So as the doctors laid the options down for his mother, they decided together the best way forward for him. We are praying that his surgery and the healing process will go well this week, and that we can help make walking easier for our little guy!
