Our programs

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Ubuntu Kids

Through specialized medical clinics, in-home treatments and our full-time classrooms, we serve more than 300 children with a variety of disabilities such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, down syndrome, autism, and epilepsy.

Before Ubuntu Kids, these children and their families were ostracized and forced to stay at home with no one to lean on. Now, they are learning to walk, communicate their needs and dreams, join mainstream schools, and find employment.

Population(s) Served
People with disabilities
Economically disadvantaged people
