HUMANITARIAN ORGANIZATION WITH A GLOBAL MISSION OF BRINGING MEDICAL TREATMENT, MOBILITY DEVICES, AND PHYSICAL THERAPY PROGRAMS TO DISABLED CHILDREN IN NEED.

WE WORK SIDE-BY-SIDE WITH IN-COUNTRY PARTNERS TO PROVIDE MEDICAL SERVICES, MOBILITY DEVICES AND OTHER LIFE CHANGING RESOURCES DESPERATELY NEEDED IN COMMUNITIES. COMPASSION CARE FOR DISABLED CHILDREN (AKA DISABLED CHILDRENS FUND) IS PARTNERING WITH MISSION TO UKRAINE (MTU), WHICH CURRENTLY SERVES OVER 600 KIDS WITH DISABILITIES, WHO NOW FIND THEMSELVES SHELTERING AT THIS VERY MOMENT. MANY OF THESE CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES CANT FLEE. THE STAFF IS DETERMINED TO STAY WITH THE CHILDREN, NO MATTER WHAT.

OUR WORK IN INDIA: PROJECT VIJAY DCF PARTNERS WITH GOOD LIFE MINISTRIES TO BRING HELP AND HOPE TO 24 FAMILIES IN TELANGANA STATE IN SOUTHERN INDIA. THESE FAMILIES ALL HAVE CHILDREN WITH COGNITIVE AND/OR PHYSICAL DISABILITIES. WE TAKE A WHOLE FAMILY APPROACH IN THIS PROGRAM. EVERY WEEK, EACH FAMILY RECEIVES FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES FOR ALL IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS, AS WELL AS ANY NEEDED MEDICATIONS AND VITAMINS NOT PROVIDED THROUGH OTHER SOURCES. ONCE OR TWICE A MONTH, A NURSE PAID BY US VISITS EACH FAMILY, ASSESSING THE SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS CONDITIONS. WHERE APPROPRIATE, WE PROVIDE SPECIALIST TREATMENT. THERE HAS BEEN GREAT PROGRESS IN SOME CASES:ONE 12-YEAR OLD GIRL IS WALKING FOR THE FIRST TIME, THANKS TO PHYSICAL AND OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY. OTHERS HAVE IMPROVED SPEECH AND MOTOR SKILLS.

WE SUPPORT OUR U.S. MILITARY FAMILIES, WHO HAVE CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS, BY PROVIDING QUALITY OF LIFE PROGRAMS. WE STRIVE TO REDUCE THE STRUGGLE FOR THOSE WHO SERVE OUR COUNTRY. TAXPAYER DOLLARS TAKE CARE OF THE CLINICAL NEEDS OF THESE CHILDREN. OUR FOCUS IS ON THE FUNDING NEEDED TO PROVIDE CREATIVE ACTIVITIES AND PERFORMING ARTS IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR THESE KIDS. WE ALSO PROVIDE QUALITY OF LIFE ENHANCEMENTS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS (CAREGIVERS) BY GIVING THEM RESPITE TIME WHILE THEIR CHILDREN ARE BEING SAFELY LOOKED AFTER.
