Hope for Disabled People

By Mary Sebastian Ogwuike | Project Leader

Compassion, Love and Service … these are at the heart of serving the disabled, vulnerable and poor of our society. Thanks to partners, our supporters and all our staff who are at the very close relationship with these disabled people to give them hope, care and support they need

Our institution as Physically Challenged is not an isolated one but an integrated which is able and physically challenged. We have three different disabled centers in Nigeria and Ghana.  The institution was funded by Immaculate Heart of Mary Sisters. The idea of the physically challenged came into reality through two missionaries (Yvonne and Anya ) from Germany who came and had their work experience at IHM school. In the course of their work, they found out that, there were a lot of physically challenged children within the community and then initiated the idea of having an integrated school in collaboration with the IHM sisters to support the community.  The school for physically challenged at its initially started with six physically challenged children within the community and now has grown up to 26 children currently and not less than 60 children have passed out since the year 2nd August,2000. The elderly disabled home started with four lay people e and now we have more than 20 people in the home with 24 hours care and support. We also have over 30 sisters in our Mater Christi home for our vulnerable and disabled sisters on 24 hours care and support as well.
