What we care for
Provision of assistive devices (wheelchairs and walkers)
For those who are physically challenged, we provide them with wheelchairs and walkers to facilitate their mobility and independence.
We have partnered with the Cerebral Palsy Society of Kenya in Nairobi who offer physiotherapy services to our beneficiaries with cerebral palsy.
We offer physiotherapy services to our CP beneficiaries.
Provision of a monthly supply of diapers during our visits.
90% of our beneficiaries need daily supply of diapers to cater for their incontinence issues. For this reason, we make it our priority to provide a monthly supply of diapers during our visits. During this visits, we also take food and household items to these families. In addition, we also have monthly doctor visits from our volunteer nurses and doctors to monitor the progress of the CP beneficiaries.
We facilitate registration and payment of NHIF(National Hospital Insurance Fund) for the families we support to ensure that they are able to access free healthcare services from government medical facilities for the entire year. We pay USD $ 60 a year for each beneficiary to cover the entire family doctor’s visits.

We have partnered with ROW Foundation USA who will provide us with anti-epileptic medication trade-marked Roweepra to our beneficiaries suffering from epilepsy at no cost. 30-50% of people with cerebral palsy also live with epilepsy. Some of this medication is also delivered to one of our partners Geno foundation whose main focus is on people with epilepsy.
We help the families and caregivers of our beneficiaries with start-up business opportunities and funding that help them earn a living while providing care to special needs individuals.
