A Gift that Changes Lives
In Tanzania, a country with few paved roads, a long rainy season and no wheelchair accessible transportation, the gift of a lift can make ALL the difference.
This holiday season, YOU can make a lifelong impact RIGHT NOW. Your gift from large to small can help these wonderful children grow, thrive and enjoy health, hope and happiness!
The children and young adults served in Mosaic's Tanzania program, Building a Caring Community, need transportation. We're raising money to purchase a wheelchair accessible van.
Why do we need this vehicle?
Consider these facts:
-
Without transportation many children who use wheelchairs cannot get to day centers during Tanzania's rainy seasons (in both the fall and spring). Few paved roads and thick mud paths make it impossible for wheelchairs to get around outside.
- With transportation these children get consistent therapy , hot meals and the care they need at our centers.
- No public or private transportation systems are wheelchair accessible. The vast majority of children in our program come from families who struggle with extreme poverty and do not have a vehicle. Without transportation, parents have no way to get their children who use wheelchairs to our centers and to the help they need.
- Without transportation, young adults with disabilities aren't able to work and learn new skills at our community farm or in other cooperatives, simply because they often live many miles from the opportunities we provide.
- With transportation, young adults can join in all of the vocational and employment programs we are building. They'll be able to learn, be involved in their communities and even earn wages through these programs.
-
Without transportation, children with disabilities will not be able to attend our inclusive education program when it launches in 2015.
- With transportation, these children will have the opportunity to attendthe FIRST inclusive education program in a public primary school in the region, make friends with children both with disabilities and without and be on the road to even greater success.
Won't you help those we serve reach their potential?
It's an easy way to make a HUGE impact. Please join us in changing lives for children and young people we serve.
TOGETHER, WE CAN GIVE THEM THE GIFT OF A LIFT!
