Disability Access

Disability Access

$30


Description

Poverty can compound challenges for people living with disabilities. Support from people around them can make a huge difference. This gift supports people living with disabilities, and their loved ones, to enjoy meaningful opportunities, restored relationships and avenues to contribute to community transformation.

How your gift helps

In Zimbabwe, Tearfund’s partner Nzeve Deaf Centre provides holistic services for deaf and hearing-impaired children, youth and their families, and promotes their right to participate fully in society.

Angeline and Rosemary have learned sign language through training from Nzeve, enabling them to communicate with the deaf members of their households.

Nzeve also helps people like Angeline and Rosemary to better support family members with disability through access to a savings and loans group and business training, and by training and supporting them to promote inclusion of people with disabilities throughout the wider community.

This Useful Gift celebrates a real story of transformation that represents the community development work of Tearfund’s partners around the world. By purchasing this gift you’ll make a valuable contribution to this work.
