Dilli Raj Danke – 30

Meet our newest Leo’s Kid, Dilli Raj Danke

He is a 17-year-old from Salyan District, Nepal, about 14 hours drive from Kathmandu.

Dilli is the 4th son of 5 in his family along with 3 sisters. His grandparents, mom and dad bring the total in their household to 12. His parents are farmers.

Dilli is studying in 10th grade and really loves studying and playing outdoor games with his friends.

Salyan Jilla hospital referred him to Bir Hospital for diagnosis. Now he is continuing his treatment at Bhaktapur Cancer Hospital. He was diagnosed with bone cancer in his leg about 4 months ago. However, initially he had cancer in his skin that gradually started spreading to the bones in his leg.

He and his brother are staying at Leo’s Kids Flats in Bhaktapur. He likes to watch television and play board games and video games while he is waiting for his treatment at the Leo’s Kids Flats.

We deeply appreciate those of you who are able to partner with us financially to support these precious children and families either with a one-time donation or a monthly donation. This helps ensure our ability to provide ongoing support to these families in their time of crisis.
