Make a difference

At Chrysalis we have identified the need to seek out partners who will be willing and able to either donate to our School or to sponsor the school fees of one or more of our children so that they can attend school and regular therapy. Investing in even one special needs child so that they can receive the support and stimulation that they need can translate to a tenfold saving of that investment – for the family, community and the government – as the child grows to hopefully becoming a semi-functional to functional adult.

Special needs children are not lost causes. They change the world in a special way. They change the way we look at the world. They can bring communities together. They offer us unconditional love and demonstrate unsurpassed dedication to overcome their obstacles and limitations. Obstacles that we aren’t even able to imagine. Moreover, they do it with a smile on their face. All they ask in return is that we take care of them and give them the opportunities that every child deserves.

 

There are four ways that you can become part of the Chrysalis family:

  1. By making a financial contribution.
  2. By donating items on our wishlist.
  3. By sponsoring a child to attend School and regular therapy.
  4. By donating unused clothing and household items to our Jumble Sale.
