These awesome kids live in Jinja, Uganda, where they are loved and cared for by the amazing staff at Ekisa Ministries. 99 Balloons led a team to Africa this summer and got to meet, play and work with Jason, Rachel, Paul and all of their friends at Ekisa.
In Uganda, kids with special needs are often isolated by their community. There exists very little resources for those with disabilities, although Uganda has one of the most forefront disability movements in all of Africa.
One of the greatest needs for the 20+ kids living at Ekisa is pediatric therapy. The opportunity for ongoing therapy services would be a huge help in allowing kids like Jason, Rachel and Paul to reach their maximum potential. We invite you to help us fund a year of Speech Therapy and Physical Therapy services for ALL of the children living at the Ekisa home.
Spread the word and ask others to join in providing much-needed physical and speech therapy for Jason, Rachel, Paul and their friends.
Together, we can help change the story for these amazing kids!
