Leprosy causes irreversible nerve damage, leading to life-limiting disabilities and severe deformities. Wounds that won't heal leave malnourished bodies open to lethal infections. Age-old fears and stigma about leprosy leave children friendless and families shunned from communities that cannot overcome leprosy on their own. Without help, the lives of children like Sameer, Maya, and Yahrah are just a shadow of all they could be.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me – Psalm 23

My days are like the evening shadow; I wither away like grass. – Psalm 102:11

My eyes have grown dim with grief my whole frame is but a shadow – Job 17:7

We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows. – Isaiah 59:9
