Let's Save Kiara

Meet Kiara

Kiara is a 4 month old baby girl who was born in Uganda to he parents Tony and Diana. Kiara was born with congenital heart disease, a condition called Atrioventricular Canal defect, the most common congenital heart defect that children born with Down Syndrome have, as well as a PDA. 

Kiara urgently needs surgery in India, before she reaches 6 months. 

Kiara's parents are working tirelessly to get funds to take Kiara, but the urgency of the situation means that they require some help. That is where we can step in. 

Tony, an artist, has kindly shared some art we are going to auction, as well as a few other items. They have raised about $5,000. The goal is $20,000, and Upasuaji would like to help get $10,000 of that goal met. 100% of donations up to $10,000 will go to the family, or directly to the hospital in India. Additional funds raised that go into the general fund will be used for other Upasuaji Projects. Click the link below to donate directly. Follow us on social media to keep up to date, and check back for links to auction.

If you would like to donate items for auction, or if you would like more information, please email lynsay@upasuaji.com
