Working with Disabled Children
Since 2009, GCK was fortunate enough to partner with the Liliane Stitching Fonds, which is a pioneer organization based out of the Netherlands and focuses on providing sponsorship support for rehabilitation of disabled children in the poor regions of the world. The Liliane Foundation aims at supporting children and youngsters with disabilities, up to 25 years, access to medical and social rehabilitation. One characteristic of this assistance is that it is provided in collaboration with local NGOs through direct, small-scaled and tailor-made help, supporting the children's personal growth and furthering the children's integration in society. The help involves (Para) medical treatment, surgery, appliances, (special) education, vocational training. Under this project initially, GCK is working with 65 disabled children and through the support provided these children have received numerous services.
These include such things as, special communication lessons for deaf and dumb children, teaching and learning materials to help special needs youth gain an education, special chairs, wheel chairs for those with mobility challenges, special education and regular health checkups. Counseling of parents for behavior change, linkage with government facilities to disabled. While no permanent solution can be provided for disabled children, it is the hope of both the Liliane Fonds and GCK that through a small amount of support and care, these children can lead a better, happier and more fulfilling life.
