Story
Elizabeth House, located near Mukono in Uganda, was founded in 2000 by David and Valerie Crowhurst to cater for the needs of children and young people with severe disabilities.Here children, rejected by society and often by their families, find love, care, encouragement, and a sense of identity and purpose. As these young people discover themselves and their potential, joy replaces misery and hope overcomes despair.

Identifying appropriate referrals for children with disabilities.
Providing children with disabilities with skills and knowledge.
Networking and collaborating with other service providers.
Lobbying and advocating for services for children with disabilities.
Providing affordable disability equipment to children.
