A six year old baby boy, Mamadu was born with a congenital heart complication. Since birth to date he has been in and out of Ola During Hospital at the PCMH Hospital. He was born with this difficult condition that makes him to Cyanosed, making him depending on oxygen for weeks and months and such has been happening since he was born.
Baby Mamadu is currently at home where he is being monitored as the Sick Pikin Project is reaching out to raise funds for his surgery.
His poor mother is a student and the father is a waiter and with this economic reality the parents of Baby Mamadu are unable to meet the financial demands to carry out his surgery.
Keeping these realities, backed with the excruciating pain that Baby Mamadu is going through day and night, the Sick Pikin Project is therefore reaching out to members of the public asking for their support so that the organization could give Baby Mamadu another chance in life.
The Sick Pikin Project says they are currently fundraising and their target is $ 5,865 which is estimated to cover the flight of the Nurse who will accompany him and to pay for Oxygen on the flight from Freetown to New Delhi. 250 USD per bottle for the oxygen and we will need 15 bottles for him.
It was revealed that they have raised the funds for His surgery, accommodation, feeding and flight from the Government of Sierra Leone, but are still in need of $ 5,865 for which they are pleading to all every goodwill person to please help save the life of Baby Mamadu.
According to them nothing is too small as a collection of little resources will make a pool that will end up saving lives.
