Recognising parents as key partners in their children's development and well-being, Nzeve continued to invest in strengthening their capacity to provide for the needs of children with disabilities. In this regard, 22 parents received practical baking skills training aimed at equipping them with income-generating skills to start small businesses, improve their household livelihoods and better meet their children's needs.
Through hands-on baking sessions, parents acquired practical skills that they can use to establish small businesses and create alternative sources of household income. To support them in putting their newly acquired skills into practice, participants were also provided with start-up kits. This combination of practical training and initial business support is intended to help parents translate their skills into viable income-generating activities and gradually build financial independence.
The initiative seeks to address some of the economic challenges faced by families raising children with disabilities. With an additional source of income, parents will be better positioned to meet their children's essential needs, including food, healthcare, education, clothing, assistive devices and other disability-related expenses. It also provides an opportunity for parents to reduce their financial dependence and take a more active role in securing their children's well-being.
By investing in parents' economic empowerment, Nzeve is strengthening the family support systems that children with disabilities depend on.
