Urgent Case: Praewa and Family
Help stabilize Praewa's family after a tragic road collision
Meet Praewa, a beautiful and bright 11 year old girl carrying an unimaginable burden - assuming the role of primary care giver for her entire family: her blind and paralyzed mother, her blind and cancer-diagnosed father, and her younger brother.
In late February 2026, Praewa's mother was critically injured in a motorcycle taxi collision involving a 10-wheeled truck. The resulting paralysis has created an immediate care crisis for a household that was already living with severe economic vulnerability.
Praewa's father is also undergoing cancer treatment, further compounding the family's medical and financial strain, leaving Praewa to now care for both her parents as well as her younger brother, all while trying to maintain her studies.
Both parents are disabled and had supported the family by selling lottery tickets. With the mother's condition now requiring extensive support at home, the family faces both medical strain and lost income at the same time.
Praewa is a full-time student under the care and tutelage of HDF Mercy Centre. The purpose of this campaign is to preserve stability around her education while the foundation manages aid with transparency and documented oversight.
