While most people stayed away from Kambou Sie because they worried his illness might be contagious, his father kept showing up.
The young man from Côte d’Ivoire, also known as Prosper, had developed a facial tumor that grew until it affected his vision and speech.
The way he looked brought cruel remarks, and the isolation made an already hard illness even tougher. His father kept looking for help.
Through a nun linked to the Liliane Foundation, the family reached people who could push their case further. The charity Una Voce per Padre Pio helped arrange treatment in Naples, Italy.
🩺 At the Pascale cancer institute, doctors diagnosed the illness as Burkitt lymphoma. He went through chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and a stem cell transplant, followed by reconstructive facial surgery.
As the tumor shrank, Prosper started thinking about life after treatment.
A later account from the organization involved said he returned to Côte d’Ivoire in December 2017 after the lymphoma had been successfully treated.
His plans went beyond just going back to school he entered vocational training and worked toward becoming an electrician.
📚 The young man who had been shut out of his community was studying for a qualification that could help him find work and build a future.
His father’s persistence had connected him with a network of people willing to help, across countries and languages. What followed was long medical care and the chance to start over.
She is a diabetic patient who lost her leg to amputation. And right now she is sitting with two heavy weights on her chest, school fees for her children, and three months of rent each, 150k. If your heart can stretch even a little, my DM is open.
The situation in Karamoja, especially in Kotido and Kaabong, is increasingly alarming. The disturbing images emerging from the region demand our collective compassion and urgent action.
I thank H.E. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni for his rapid intervention and deployment of food relief. However, I believe we must now scale up the national response and widen the clarion call.
Government, development partners, humanitarian organisations, the private sector, religious institutions and all Ugandans of goodwill must rally together. This is a moment for national solidarity. No Ugandan should face hunger in silence when, together, we have the capacity to respond.
Karamoja is Uganda. Its pain is our pain. Its people are our people. Let us act urgently, generously and together.
I’m deeply touched by the situation of these young souls. Whenever I return from work, they come to my place just to welcome me with their innocent smiles. ❤️
They lost their father and are living with their single mother, who has no job or stable income. Life is really hard……

A spinal cord injury in 2021 changed everything.
My doctors say recovery is still possible. Treatment is in India: neural surgery, nerve stimulation, advanced physiotherapy.
Any amount helps me get there.
This young man, Ssemwogerere Kelvin, has been missing for nearly a week now. He’s a student & resides in Mpigi. His family has searched high & low, near & far, but they can’t find him. The police has been involved with no success so far. Please, share this widely. 🙏
Aaron is fighting for every breath. ❤️🩹
After surviving heart surgery as a child, he now needs an urgent redo surgery in Italy to stay alive. The cost is UGX 150M (€30k)—a mountain his family can’t climb alone.
Please, let’s give Aaron a heartbeat. Every shilling counts.

Our brother, Savious Nyaguwa (28), has been in serious pain for the past 9 months. He has been forced to lie on his stomach the whole time because of his injuries. He is currently admitted at Mtendere Mission Hospital in Zambia, waiting for the help he urgently needs.
On 19 June 2025, Savious was a passenger in a truck travelling from Chikuti along the Harare–Chirundu Road. About 10 km before Makuti, the truck was involved in a terrible accident. The driver died on the spot, and another passenger was badly injured.
Savious was trapped in the truck for almost an hour. During that time, hot oil from the truck kept burning him. He suffered severe burns on his back, buttocks, and legs. He also has a fractured hip.
He now needs a hip replacement surgery that costs about US$4,000 (around K75,000). This operation could give him a second chance at life.
So far, with help from Saint TV, some money has been raised. But there is still US$2,432 needed to reach the target.
