Donate for children with Autism in Pakistan

Dear Donors and Supporters,

Warm greetings from NDF Pakistan.

We are pleased to share the progress of our project "Donate for Children with Autism in Pakistan", supported through the GlobalGiving platform. Your generous contributions are helping children with autism access rehabilitation, therapy, special education, and family support services that improve their quality of life.

Autism affects children in both urban and rural communities. However, families living in remote and underserved areas often face significant challenges in accessing specialized services. Through this project, NDF Pakistan is working to bridge this gap by providing support to children with autism and their families across Sindh.

Project Achievements

During this reporting period, NDF Pakistan:

• Supported 400 children out of 700 with autism through rehabilitation and therapy services at all Centers in Sindh.
• Provided speech therapy, occupational therapy, behavioral support, and special education.
• Conducted parent counseling and family support sessions.
• Increased awareness about autism and early intervention within local communities.
• Reached children attending NDF Rehabilitation Centres in Nawabshah, Larkana, Hyderabad, Gulistan-e-Johar Karachi, and Gulshan-e-Hadeed Karachi.

Impact on Children and Families

Your support has enabled children with autism to:

• Improve communication and social interaction skills.
• Develop greater independence in daily activities.
• Participate more actively in educational and recreational programs.
• Reduce behavioral challenges through structured interventions.
• Gain confidence and opportunities for inclusion.

Families have reported better understanding of autism and increased ability to support their children at home.
