Milagros Echenique, mother of Micaela, 3, Peru
“She is so independent now and can interact with other people much better. She can walk and has begun saying some basic words! It is a joy and privilege to see her like this.”
Your gift could fund two months worth of mobility and motor skills sessions for a child in need.

Motor and mobility skills
An extra special gift
Malnutrition, contaminated water supply and a lack of pre-natal healthcare. All these factors contribute to the disproportionally high number of children born with a disability or special needs in the district of Lima, San Juan de Lurigancho.
One product your gift could help fund is the Yancana Huasy project, which gives children with disabilities or special needs the support they need to achieve their potential.
Motor and mobility sessions are especially helpful to children like Micaela who have never learned to walk or move independently.
