Their story — in their own words

Right now, a young boy named Akin is fighting for his life — completely alone.

Akin was abandoned by his parents. He has no family to hold his hand, protect him, or fight beside him. We are the only ones he has left.

Akin is suffering from an extremely aggressive cancer in his eye. The disease has already spread to his brain and other organs, and doctors have given him just six months to live.

He is only a child, but he is already facing death alone. Every day the tumor grows, his pain gets worse, and without immediate care he may not survive long enough to have a future.

Our emergency funds are gone, and time is slipping away. Goal 1 brought him some pain relief, but Goal 2 will fund the urgent scans and laboratory work doctors need to understand how far the cancer has spread.

We urgently need $2,520 more to unlock those tests. Without the scans, treatment cannot move forward. The full fight still needs $20,000, but this next step cannot wait.

This is not about tomorrow. This is about giving Akin a chance to live right now. Every donation could be the reason he survives another day.

Goal 1 — Pain Relief ($4,000): Funded. Essential medication has begun easing Akin's pain.

Goal 2 — Urgent Tests ($9,000): Still blocked. Scans and labs must map the cancer before treatment can proceed.

Goal 3 — Start Treatment ($14,000): Early-stage cancer care can begin once doctors can see what they are fighting.

Goal 4 — Full Fight ($20,000): Aggressive treatment to give Akin a real chance at survival.

Please help us save Akin. If you cannot donate today, sharing his story can still bring the person who can.
