My name is Michael Frank, from Papua New Guinea. I am the uncle of 13-year-old Jaced, a brave young boy who has lost both of his parents and is now living under my care.Jaced is a bright young boy with dreams like any other child. But he is also living with a serious medical condition — severe anemia caused by thalassemia. To survive and have a future, Jaced urgently needs lifesaving treatment, including iron chelation therapy (Deferasirox/Desferoxamine) and Bone Marrow Transplant in the future.

Right now, Jaced’s siblings — both still in school — have put their education on hold to look after him. Instead of continuing in Year 10, they are at home, caring for their little brother. The burden on this young family is heavy: medical bills, daily needs, and the emotional pain of losing both parents.

Despite all of this, Jaced continues to fight with courage and hope. His smile, even through pain, is a reminder that every child deserves the chance to live, grow, and dream.

I'm doing this fundraising  to help cover:

*Urgent medical treatment and medicines overseas since Papua New Guinea Department of Health don't order Chelation Therapy Treatment 

*Hospital visits and tests for further treatment overseas.

*Food and basic living needs for Jaced and his siblings

*Travel and care costs as required for treatment

Every contribution — no matter how small — brings us closer to giving Jaced the chance to live the healthy, happy life he deserves. If you cannot give, please share Jaced’s story so that others may stand with him.

✨ Together, we can give Jaced hope, healing, and a future. ✨
