Meet Syakir and Syahir, two extraordinary brothers whose smiles light up their small Singapore apartment. At first glance, they might seem like typical young boys – Syakir, 8, loves automobiles, while Syahir, 6, dreams of becoming a pilot. But their journey is far from ordinary.
Syakir’s Courageous Battle
Syakir was born with Williams Syndrome, a rare genetic condition that affects his development and health. Despite undergoing six surgeries already, with more scheduled, Syakir’s spirit remains unbroken. His love for cars and trucks shines through in his eyes, even on the toughest days.
Syahir’s Challenging JourneyÂ
Younger brother Syahir faces his own set of challenges. Recent assessments revealed social-emotional, cognitive, and communication developmental delays. Yet, when you ask him about his future, his face lights up as he talks about soaring through the skies as a pilot.
A Family United by Love
Behind these two remarkable boys stand their parents, Noraini and Kamal. Noraini, at 36, has become a full-time caregiver, dedicating every waking moment to her sons’ needs. Kamal works tirelessly as a pest control technician, often ignoring his own health issues to provide for his family.
Their journey to parenthood was fraught with challenges. After Noraini’s endometriosis diagnosis and surgery, the couple underwent multiple rounds of IVF to welcome their boys. Now, they face a new set of hurdles – ensuring their sons receive the care and support they need to thrive.
Overcoming Financial Struggles
While Syakir and Syahir’s dreams soar high, the family’s financial reality is grounding. With Kamal’s monthly income just above $2,000 and a deficit of more than $1,000 each month, they struggle to balance medical bills, special diets, and educational needs. Often, they’re forced to make heart-wrenching choices between essential care for the boys and basic necessities.
How Your Donation Can Help
Wardrobe Purchase: $700
   The family recently moved into their new apartment but can’t fully unpack due to lack of storage. A wardrobe will help them settle in and create a more organized home environment.
Children’s Monthly Needs: $2,700
   – Educational expenses: $116/month for transport, mobile plans, and allowances
   – Basic needs: $350/month for milk, diapers, and supplements
Total Fundraising Goal: $3,400
By reaching our goal, we can provide six months of stability for this family:
– Allow them to fully settle into their new home
– Ensure consistent care and education for Syakir and Syahir
– Reduce financial stress, allowing Noraini and Kamal to focus on their boys’ needs
– Potentially allow Kamal to seek needed medical attention for his injuries
A Message from the Family
“I would like to see my kids succeed. I feel so proud of my boys when I see them achieve what other kids can do too. We dream of seeing our boys succeed and achieve their goals. Syahir wants to be a pilot, while Syakir loves automobiles. Your support gives us hope that we can provide our children with the care and opportunities they deserve,” Noraini shares, her eyes bright with hope.Â
Kamal adds quietly, “My family is everything to me. I’ll do whatever it takes to give them a better life.”
