PROJECT FOR CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES

In Ghana life is very hard for children, wich were born with disabilities. Meeting their special needs is often an impossible challenge for the families. Resignation of the family is the result and the children will be left alone.

The plight of the children is dramatic. There is a lack of suitable means and for many children, the floor is the only place for them to stay. Contractures, deformities of the bones or pressure ulcers are the consequences. Using the bathroom becomes an ordeal.

Access to public infrastructure, education and information is often completely cut off for these children.

We have set up a relief fund for this children and would be pleased, if you can donate to this fund.

If an emergency situation arises, we can help the affected child quickly and unbureaucratically, with the funds.

One step in this direction is, for example, a wheelchair specifically adapted to the child´s needs, which we have designed and manufactured together with a Ghanaian-German company in Kumasi.

Other aids with which the children can participate in life again and attend school are e.g. special walking aids.

But also medical care, proper nutrition and other therapeutic approaches are part of this project.

EVERY donation helps us to brighten the lives of these children and to provide them with a future without dependence, through access of education!

Our Vanquisher enables mobility, participation in school lessons and the first time independence.

Costs:

• three-wheeled wheelchair called “Vanquisher” 350€
• walking aid 30€
• proportionate transport costs, to bring a child to a hospital for diagnosis 20€
