We have some family friends in Cambodia whose daughter was sadly burned on her hands when she plunged them into a pot of boiling Borbor (rice porridge) while in the care of her grandma. Her parents are both really hardworking people who live in Poipet and have spent all they can on medical treatment so far, but the care they have paid for hasn't been successful. At the moment, their daughter has two fingers that have fused together and she can't close her hands, which means she can't hold or grip anything. Cambodia is difficult enough for a lot of families, but with this type of injury, I can't imagine what their daughter's future looks like. We are not in a position to find the operation ourselves, unfortunately. I know that in general gofundme requests aren't always well received here and I know that many people here have commitments within their own families, but if you could spare a little money it would go a long way for this family. If anyone wants more details, please feel free to PM me on here.

Thanks either way for taking the time to read the post and if you can, please share anywhere you think it may help to raise the money.

Got an ABA for the family? I'm pretty sure to you can't get the funds out of the GoFundMe until it's completed.

I'll ask the missus and get back to you about the ABA and thanks for the message/tip.

Good job grandma.

Yes, a real tragedy but as I mentioned, they both work and had limited options with regards to childcare. Apparently the Borbor was cooked, taken off the stove and set aside on the floor and that's when she put her hand in it.

Just a heads-up, the total doesn't have to be reached for funds to be withdrawn. I had to do an identity check and now donations are sent as they come in.

On the floor to cool near a toddler... Everyday, I'm amazed

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to anyone and everyone who has donated or shared. Over £900 has been raised in just over a week.

If you can't donate, please share if you can.
