Imprint Hope works to eliminate the neglect, abuse, abandonment and death of children with disabilities in Uganda by educating communities on childhood disability, providing medical and rehabilitative services to the children affected, and educating and empowering caretakers to care for their child and earn a living wage for their families. We envision a world where all children with disabilities are appreciated for their unique talents and provided an opportunity to actualize their full potential.What We Do For The ChildDuring the live-in 6-week program, children receive daily physical and occupational therapy, orthopedic equipment and nutritional and medical support. While their child is being cared for, Imprint Hope families embark on a journey of their own, participating in daily classes on the types and causes of disability, proper hygiene, parenting techniques, and human rights of children with disabilities. In addition to learning about their child's disability, families participate in start-up business training, agricultural lessons, and tailoring to be better equipped to pay for their child's medical expenses upon their return home.What We Do For The FamiliesOne way the Imprint Hope team equips our families to earn consistent income is through our newest program, Imprint Microfinance. This program seeks to combat the difficulty in raising a special needs child by bringing hope to our families through small business training and micro-loans. Each mother that attends Imprint Hope's program is equipped and empowered in business skills via mentoring and community training seminars. Upon graduation from this course, each mother is given a micro-loan that is expected to be paid back over the next twelve months. This loan serves as a mechanism to help each mother start her small scale business in her home village with the hope of combating poverty.
