Brave 14-Year-Old Survivor

a 14-year-old girl was brought in after a harrowing car accident on Kalerwe Street, Kampala. Despite sustaining multiple injuries to her head and limbs, she has shown incredible strength and resilience. 🚨 A brain CT scan is crucial to rule out potential complications, but the financial barrier stands in the way. The single mother, who makes a living selling kasoli and cassava, is unable to cover the 250k cost. That is when the Bergen Children Foundation could help with this cost and if needed also support this young survivor on her journey to recovery. Every contribution matters!

Little Fighter's Journey

In the pediatric ward, a 9-month-old warrior was referred from Mubende with a persistent cough and difficulty breathing. Despite initial pneumonia treatment, the situation worsened, leading to oxygen dependence. The mother, only 19 years old, and separated from the unsupportive father, faces immense challenges as a casual laborer alongside her grandmother. They are paid 7000 shillings (19.7kr) per day.
