This project will transform the lives of 50 children with developmental disabilities from urban slums and rural areas of Kenya. These children face enormous challenges, but with your support, we will provide life changing resources like medical supplies, assistive devices, therapies, nutrition, specialized education and other critical social services they need to thrive. The sponsorship will target those from vulnerable homes like single mothers and those of low income.
There are currently more than 2 million children living with disabilities in Kenya. 70% of these are from urban poor and rural communities. Those families survive on less than a dollar per day. They are unable to meet the high costs of the services that a child with special needs requires. They lack therapies, basic education, medical supplies and social services. These children are at a risk of stigmatization, neglect and abandonment by their families. They are denied their right to basic needs
