A young mother is finally home with her child. And it's all because of a few dollars a month.
Take a moment to read this story—it’s the perfect example of what happens when kindness doesn’t stop at a one-time gesture.
We’re starting the week with some incredible news. This is the story of Ana Todorciuc, and how simple monthly donations of $2, $5, or $10 literally saved her life. Not long ago, Ana was at a breaking point. Her treatment was the only thing keeping her alive, but the initial wave of donations had stalled. For Ana, those days were a living nightmare; she knew she couldn’t pause her treatment, but she had no way to pay for the next stage.
There’s a moment in medicine that people don’t often talk about. It’s when a doctor looks you in the eye and says, “If we stop now, there’s no going back.” Ana knew the stakes, and she knew she was out of options. That’s when the "small" help stepped in. It was so quiet that most people didn’t realize the impact it was having, but for Ana, it was everything.
We’re talking about recurring monthly support. On its own, a couple of dollars might not seem like a life-changing amount. But because that help was constant, Ana’s treatment never had to stop. Month after month, she could keep fighting without the paralyzing fear that her clock was about to run out.
Today, Ana is home. She is holding her child in her arms, healthy and alive. When we met her, she was absolutely glowing—and that is a gift from every one of you who stood by her.
She didn’t have a long speech prepared. With tears in her eyes, she just whispered, “Thank you for saving me. I’ve prayed for everyone who helped me, even though we’ve never met.”
This is the real power of a monthly commitment. It saves mothers, protects children, and looks after the elderly. A small monthly gift costs less than a cup of coffee, but when we join together, it becomes a lifeline.
We’re looking for "everyday heroes" to stand by a child in a hospital ward, a mother on the brink of despair, or an elderly person left all alone. It only takes two minutes to set up a monthly donation of any amount. It’s a small act, but it has the power to SAVE LIVES.
No matter where you are, you can be someone’s hero here:
