📋 Informazioni sul progetto
Ssenyonga Jonathan is 11 years old but stuck in Primary 2 because of a severe, uncorrected clubfoot that makes every step painful. A specialized surgery in Kampala can fix his legs and let him walk properly. I'm Kombo Isaac, fundraising on his behalf. Your donation today gives Jonathan a future without pain.
📖 La storia completa
My name is Kombo Isaac. I am a Ugandan living in a small community where many children struggle just to walk to school. I am not a rich man. I am not a doctor. I am just an ordinary person who saw an 11-year-old boy suffering and decided I could not stay silent.
The boy's name is Ssenyonga Jonathan. He is 11 years old. He should be in Primary 5 by now, running and playing with his friends. Instead, Jonathan is stuck in Primary 2. Why? Because Jonathan can walk, but not properly.
Jonathan was born with a severe clubfoot that was never fully corrected. His legs twist inward. His knees buckle without warning. Every morning, he limps to school on red dirt roads. He falls often. He arrives late, dirty, and exhausted. Some children laugh at him. Some call him names. Jonathan just lowers his head and opens his book. At the end of each school day, his knees ache, his back burns, and he cries quietly where no one can see.
His mother sells vegetables by the roadside. She has sold her cooking pot, her mattress, and even her second pair of shoes just to buy Jonathan painkillers. At night, she sleeps on the floor. She told me with tears in her eyes: "I have nothing left. But I cannot watch my son suffer."
Doctors at an orthopedic clinic in Kampala have examined Jonathan. They confirmed that his condition is treatable. With one corrective surgery and six months of intensive physiotherapy, Jonathan can learn to walk properly — without falling, without pain, without shame. But the cost is $20,000 (approximately 74 million Uganda Shillings). His mother cannot afford it. The government cannot help. So I, Kombo Isaac, am raising this money myself.
How will the funds be used? Here is the exact breakdown:
Corrective orthopedic surgery (both legs): $9,000
Hospital stay, anesthesia, and post-op care: $3,000
Custom leg braces (two sets as he grows): $2,500
Six months of physiotherapy (three times per week): $4,000
Transport to/from Kampala (village to city): $1,000
Tutoring to help Jonathan move from Primary 2 to Primary 3: $500
Total: $20,000
What impact will this fundraiser have? This is not just about surgery. This is about a child's entire future. With your help, Jonathan will:
Walk to school without falling or crying.
Stop being the boy that others laugh at.
Move from Primary 2 to Primary 3, then 4, then beyond.
Finally know what it feels like to run a few steps without his legs betraying him.
Give his mother back her sleep and her hope.
Concrete figures: $10 provides painkillers for one week. $50 pays for one physiotherapy session. $500 buys one custom leg brace. $2,000 pays for the hospital bed and anesthesia. $9,000 covers the entire surgery.
I, Kombo Isaac, promise to use every single shilling only for Jonathan's treatment and education. I will post receipts, photos, and video updates after every milestone. Every donor will receive a personal thank-you message.
Please. Jonathan is only 11 years old. He has never run. He has never played football. He has never walked to school without pain. You can change that today. Donate whatever you can. Share this campaign with five people right now. Together, we can save Jonathan's legs — and his future.
With tears and determination,
Kombo Isaac
