Our Story

The Abdul Miracle Disabled Children’s Foundation (AMDCF) is a Non-Profit organization formed on the basis of serving Disabled Children with primary objectives on Education, Livelihood, Growth and Development and Physosocial support.

According to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities ,The principles of the present Convention shall be:

(a) Respect for inherent dignity, individual autonomy including the freedom to make one’s own choices, and independence of persons; (b) Non-discrimination; (c) Full and effective participation and inclusion in society; (d) Respect for difference and acceptance of persons with disabilities as part of human diversity and humanity; (e) Equality of opportunity; (f) Accessibility; (g) Equality between men and women; (h) Respect for the evolving capacities of children with disabilities and respect for the right of children with disabilities to preserve their identities.

But yet still we see people with various forms of disabilities especially children been one of the most deprived in Society all throughout the World and more so in Developing Countries lacking their fundamental rights and privileges in various aspect of their daily lives ranging from access to quality education, adequate health care, Inclusion, Equality of Opportunity and More.

Amidst these challenges and more faced by people living with disability, Abdul Miracle Disabled Children’s Foundation saw the Need to empower, capacitate and best address the felt needs of disabled children through our programs targeting education, livelihood, Growth & Development and Physosocial support.

The Foundation as part of it School scholarship Scheme supports Less Privilege Disabled Children in a form of School Tuition,Learning Materials etc.and as part of our Physosocial work we form liaisons with the school Authorities and Community Stake holders in schools they attend and the communities they live as a way of evaluating progress reports, academic outputs and addressing any inadequacies regarding the social challenges they face in school and their communities. We are currently operating in the western area urban and rural areas in Sierra Leone (More specifically Freetown and its environs) this been treated as a pilot phase of our programs with the aim of extending our support and the scope of our intervention nationwide.

We are engaged in advocacy activities to ensure that we raise awareness on issues affecting children with disability and also use it as a platform to seek support and assistance to meet the needs of these children through radio and television talk shows, and the social media platforms. We also advocate to line organizations, institutions and individuals to boost the support provided to these children as enacted in the constitution of Sierra Leone through the Disability Act of 2011.
