Creating a world for kids with intellectual disabilities in Lusaka, Zambia.
In developing areas like Lusaka, children with intellectual disabilities have little or no access to the critical care, facilities, and support that they need to thrive.
Kids who have disabilities are often left marginalized and vulnerable, and without a community of support, families are unsure how to care for their child.
Special Hope Network exists to bring glory to God by creating a world where all kids are valued. We impact communities by improving care for kids with intellectual disabilities. This starts by bringing hope and equipping families and caregivers to provide these children with a loving home, holistic health care, and exceptional education and therapies.
We are currently working with 195 children and their caregivers in 3 Community Care Centers around Lusaka, Zambia. Since 2012, our Community Outreach teams have trained over 900 community advocates, bringing acceptance and support to families of children with intellectual disabilities in their local communities.
When you give to Special Hope, you impact communities by improving care for kids with intellectual disabilities and empowering families and caregivers. Prayerfully consider joining our Special Hope Network donor team.
