Who are you and what do you do?

Our main goal is to tackle the discrimination and low esteem of people living with disabilities. We try by all means to help our beneficiaries realise their potential. We convey the message that being disabled is NOT an inability – you can make your mark in society using your talents!

Why did you get started?

The organization was started after we realised the standard of living our beneficiaries have. They always stay at home while their peers go to school to study Our beneficiaries are sadly always left behind.

We had to intervene! We had to try and help them better their lives. The almost 50 beneficiaries we take care of were mostly staying indoors. They missed out on socialization opportunities and some of them were also exposed to narcotics. We really wanted to educate the community on addiction and other social problems.
