Dear kind souls, we bring to you an extraordinary tale of courage and love in the face of adversity. It's the story of a young boy named Obed and his mother, a woman with an indomitable spirit battling a giant leg, an unfortunate consequence of a ruthless cancer. Obed, at the tender age of 8, has been a beacon of hope and strength for his mother. He has taken on a responsibility that many adults would find daunting - becoming his mother's primary caregiver. Together, they navigate the challenges of daily life, with Obed providing not only physical care but also emotional support beyond his years. But life has become increasingly tough for this brave pair. Obed's mother's health has started to deteriorate rapidly, and they need your help. Medical professionals have advised that she requires advanced treatment to fight the cancer that's causing her leg to swell bigger each day. However, the cost of this treatment is far beyond their humble means. Obed has shown exceptional dedication in taking care of his mom, but he too is in dire need. His young shoulders bear the weight of providing for his mother, a task that has forced him out of school. The sparkle of dreams in his eyes is slowly fading away, replaced by the grim reality of his circumstances. He yearns to return to his books, his friends, and his childhood. They need a lifeline, and this is where you come in. Your generous donations can turn their life around. Your contributions will not only fund the much-needed treatment for Obed's mother, but it will also enable Obed to return to school, bringing him back the childhood he so dearly misses. Every donation, big or small, will bring them a step closer to a healthier, happier life. Together, we can gift Obed's mother the chance to fight her illness, and Obed a chance to chase his dreams. As you read this, remember, 'No one has ever become poor by giving.' - Anne Frank. We believe in the power of humanity and the strength of collective goodwill. Please donate today and share this campaign with your friends, family, and network. Join us in supporting Obed and his mother on their journey to a better life. Thank you in advance for your compassion and generosity.

Travel Snaps Challenge Winners
Travel changes us — if we let its lessons in. It’s possible to wander the world, even to take pictures, with our eyes as good as closed, never opening to the new self that a new place might make of us. So many of the entries to our Travel Snaps challenge were by creators who really wanted to look at the world, and themselves, anew. They were all inspiring to read — and to see, because photography was an important part of this competition. To us, the ‘quality’ of the photographs wasn’t the point; it was that these images were yours. It was a reminder of how much more that can mean — certainly when it comes to personal essays — than widely available or AI images. We really loved seeing these snaps.

Indeed no one has become poor by giving. That's so true.
