Provide Life-Saving Medical Care for Momo Bakari
Momo Bakari is a resident of the larger Blessed Camp village and a mother of 2 children. She recently turned 40 years old, and after constant headaches and ailments, she was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor. This is causing her intense pain, headaches, and eye twitches, among other medical complications. The x-rays that revealed the brain tumor cost her family not just all their money, but their entire revenue stream as well, as they had to sell their livestock in order to travel and have the x-rays taken. The condition has caused Momo, a practicing Muslim, to cross cultural and religious barriers to come and seek help from Action Ministry. She had heard that this was a safe place where she could get help. The brain surgery, which is the only hope for her life, costs $8200. Helping her get this much needed surgery will save her life while showing the love of Christ. With your help, we were able to raise $6,852!!!
