Compassion Care for Disabled Children Inc

Our work in India: Project Vijay DCF partners with Good Life Ministries to bring help and hope to families in Telangana State in Southern India. These families all have children with cognitive and/or physical disabilities. We take a whole family approach in this program. Every week, each family receives fresh fruits and vegetables for all immediate family members, as well as any needed medications and vitamins not provided through other sources. Once or twice a month, a nurse paid by us visits each family, assessing the special needs kids conditions. Where appropriate, we provide specialist treatment. 26 children have been restored.
