200 "One Baby Boxes" for low-income parents

Following the success of the pilot of the toolkit for the early detection of disabilities for children, Shamseya was present at a national event under the auspices of the Ministry of Social solidarity and GIZ in Egypt. 

This presence and participation was essential and made a huge difference in the dissemination and the explanation of the toolkit and its usage. Dr. Ayman Sabea, Shamseya CEO made a full presentation to the audience on the toolkit and its benefits for families. 

Among the audience, there were several kinds of entities who were present and were surprised by the quality and the inclusivity of the toolkit, between them were: local NGOs, civil society actors, UN agencies, National entities. Who are themselves parents as well, which helped enormously in the relevance of this toolkit to them as families and decision makers at the same time. 

What made this toolkit distinguished is the accessibility and the inclusivity of the measures, also it’s 100 % based on scientific knowledge and international criterias. You can have an overview on the kit by clicking here. 

With your support, we will be working on an english version of the tool and make it available and accessible on different platforms. 

We thank you for your continuous support and we can’t wait to share with you more exciting updates towards better and equal childhood for children all over Egypt. 

Building on what we shared with you previously, One Baby Box with its comprehensive toolkit for early detection of disabilities, is reaching more underprivileged families in marginalized areas in Egypt. 

This was after the successful launching of the project which attracted the national decision makers in Egypt to make this toolkit available nationwide. And to make the training materials and the toolkit available to more far governorates than Cairo, we made it accessible online as well to expand the impact of the toolkit and share the knowledge and best practices of the families who used this kit. 

What makes our online toolkit even more special, is that we included the instructions on how to use it with sign language. This ensures the inclusivity of the toolkit and the expansion to even more marginalized groups. You can have access to the toolkit by clicking here. 

Our next step in which your support will make a huge difference, is to make the toolkit part of each One Baby Box , so that every family can make these tests with their children. 

We thank you enormously for your continuous support. 

Stay tuned for the next step in our journey towards equal childhood.
