This campaign is to help my little baby cousin - Haider Pong. Baby Haider is barely one month old and he has been diagnosed with a serious and life-threathening condition called "Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries" (CCTGA). It is a rare heart defect in which the heart’s lower half is reversed.

Baby Haider will need several open heart surgeries to correct this problem (the first one is scheduled for Feb 10, 2017 at the Gleneagle Hospital in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia), and the total medical bills may run as high as US$100,000.

Haider's father, my Uncle Andrew works at a casino in Singapore. He has to commute 3 to 4 hours each way (from Kulai, Johor to Sentosa Singapore) to work everyday, earning an income that barely able to support the family (Haider also has two older sisters).


We are hoping someone with a good heart like you can help save this child's life so that he can grow up to be a healthy and productive person.

Every donation is deeply appreciated, no matter what the amount.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity!

  • Hello! My name is mohammed and I am 22 years old. Four years ago, shortly after my eighteenth birthday, my life was turned upside down by horrible news. I had been working in construction for a few months when I felt severe pain in my right knee. At first I thought it was a sprain, but in September 2013, I decided to seek medical help. That’s when I learned that cancer had hit me full force and not just any cancer, but Ewing’s sarcoma with metastases, in other words, a rare and aggressive bone cancer.

Paypal problem

Update posted by Lauren Pong at 05:11 am

Apparently, some of you kind people still have problem processing their payment on the site. We have called Paypal and they suggested that you try doing this while on a strong Wifi network. According to Paypal processing the payment via mobile/cell network may not be as stable. Thanks again for
