The project addresses the health of a disabled girl in Laos by providing her with physical therapy, traditional medications including herbs, and raising funds so that she has access to nutritious foods and the tools necessary for physical therapy.

Activities

Why this Project is Important

Potential Long Term Impact

In the long term SEDA hopes that Andy will be able to walk and care for herself as a result of the physical therapy and proper medical care.

Project Message

I saw Andy lying in a plastic chair that was obviously not providing her with the comfort or support she needs. Her body was covered with a towel rather than a proper blanket
