Abdel is a little kid who entered Effeta center in 2017, when he was only 3 years old. His family is very poor: his father is a worker and his mother is a housewife. She can’t find a job because she has to look after her 2 kids, both with deafness problems. Furthermore Abdel is suffering from a liver disease, which causes a slowdown in growth, and he has to follow the treatment regularly. Nevertheless, the kid is happy because he feels everybody loves him, at home and at school in Effeta. In 2 years time he has made much progress: firstly he has now realized the importance of words, so he uses his hearing aid without complaining and he’s doing all his best to learn speaking.
Thanks to your help, Abdel and many other children like him, can start hearing, speaking and going to school.
We want to say thanks to you and to all your friends who may help these children in the future. Together we can make the difference!
Our project manager Gaetano is going to Bethlehem at the end of August and he’ll meet Abdel and all the children in Effeta. In our next report we’ll tell you about his trip.
