AySAND


Children Living with Disabilities

AYSAND (Assistance and Service to Children with Disabilities) has been providing education, therapy, occupational training and recreational services to youths with disabilities for the last 13 years. AYSAND operates permanently at its maximum capacity of 120 children with a large waiting list. The children are divided into 3 levels as per their progress and disability level, Unlike most NGOs AYSAND does receive some government and private support, although it is nowhere near enough to meet the great need that exists.
Working with disabled children can prove to be very emotionally challenging for volunteers though extremely rewarding. While observing the ways disabilities have affected young lives can be heartrending, the work is immensely uplifting at the same time. It is truly amazing and rewarding to watch a child respond to your love, care, and attention.




Volunteers work side by side with teachers and other volunteers assisting in recreational, manual and artistic activities, reading stories, organizing sport activities, caring for and playing with the children and helping in the kitchen and dining room.
