Medical care for Habiba, 14, Palestinian refugee
Habiba was born in Balata camp in the West Bank, created in the 1950s for the Palestinian refugees.
She was badly burned when an explosion happened in her home and even had to undergo a facial skin graft in France. Suffering from a severe foot deformity caused by the burn, she also needs further surgery, but her family can’t afford it.
This project will cover for surgery at Armand Trousseau AP-HP hospital, as well as post-operative care.
Total budget: €6,600

The achievement in image
Habiba went back to Palestine on November 3, 2024 with her mother and sister. Their home in Balata refugee camp near Nablus exploded a few years ago, trapping them in the flames. They had to undergo numerous operations, and in Habiba's case, the doctors detected a deformity in one of her feet. Thank you, Seed Family!
