On May 8th, 2025, 14-year-old Azhar Awan was attacked by a stray dog while walking with his mother in Sydney, Australia. The bite to his right thigh required emergency surgery. Despite timely cleaning and antibiotics, it was later confirmed that Azhar has contracted rabies – a condition that is nearly always fatal without immediate and aggressive treatment.
His mother, Shumaila, also sustained injuries trying to protect him. They’ve already exhausted their financial resources on surgery, medications, and hospital care.
Azhar is currently battling for his life, and his treatment requires high-cost interventions not fully covered by public healthcare.
We urgently need your help to cover:
Advanced ICU care and antiviral treatment
Life-support equipment
Rehabilitation (if recovery is possible)
Family support during this crisis
Every dollar you give is a step toward saving Azhar’s life.
Please donate and share. Time is running out.
