THANK YOU FOR HELPING JOEY


Many of those who follow the Child's i Foundation's story will remember our first major success story: Joey. 


Joey was abandoned in a public taxi park when he was just 4 weeks old. Before Child's i Foundation, Joey would probably have spent his life in long-term institutional care. Instead, after just 6 weeks with us, he was adopted by a Desire and George, a wonderful Ugandan couple. He was cherished by a loving family and a wonderful future ahead of him. Last week we found out that Joey is suffering from a critical stenosis of his pulmonary artery. Joey is relying on the temporary structures of his heart that are necessary for babies in the womb; these should have closed up within days of his birth but have miraculously remained. 

Because there was no-one in East Africa who could perform the surgery on a 4 month-old, we put out this appeal for help. Donations flooded in from around the world and reading all of your beautiful messages of support have kept Joey’s family going over the last few days. More than 250 of you contributed more than 10,000 pounds, and Joey is now in Johannesburg one of the best medical centres in Africa thanks entirely to your kindness and love. 


Joey’s operation is scheduled for Monday and we’ll keep you posted on his progress. We've also linked to our THANK YOU video, which is linked to on this page. After all, it’s you who’ve made everything possible.
