Kilimanjaro · 25 November 2010

Able Child works toward a world in which no child with a disability is left behind. We support a network of organisations in Africa to protect, educate and amplify the voices of children and young people with disabilities, so they are able to thrive.

Story

I remember how, in my childhood, I  would struggle to walk to school 3 km away without any walking aids - to attend grossly inaccessible classrooms - always arriving late to school. AbleChildAfrica is trying to make a difference in the lives of the many many children who are still struggling like I did.  I joined the board to support this attempt to make a real difference in disabled children's lives and in November I will climb Kilimanjaro to make a statement that we need to change our attitudes to disability and understand that disabled children deserve an equal chance just like everyone else.  Please sponsor me and help me make that vision a reality.
