• Clothes & Shoes – For children and young adults

Empower Families – Teach a Skill to Parents & Caregivers

Many parents in Liberia struggle financially while also caring for an autistic child. By teaching practical skills, we can empower families to earn an income while providing the best care for their children.

Ways to Help:

• Train parents in small businesses (e.g., tailoring, soap-making, hairstyling)
• Provide work-from-home opportunities for caregivers
• Donate startup materials (sewing machines, baking supplies, etc.)
• Offer micro-loans or mentorship to help families become self-sufficient
