Gabriela is two years old and has had a difficult start in life. She was born with Down syndrome and a heart condition, which required surgery when she was just two months old. She has difficulty breathing and needs constant monitoring, annual checkups, and special care.
With the help of a social worker, Gabriela’s mother was able to obtain the certificates she needed and the necessary documents to qualify as a personal caregiver.
The support of social workers is essential so that vulnerable families are not left alone and have access to the therapies and services they need.
Today, you can make a difference. Set up a monthly donation now.
Help Gabriela and other vulnerable children access the services they need, with the support of social workers.
Thank you.
