Our Children
Need Your Help
Whether time or monetary, consider
helping a disabled child and their families.
Who we are
“Children are the flowers of life and we must love and protect them.”
What we do
The Committee’s work includes:
Financing surgeries
Financing surgeries for Bahamian children whose parents were unable to afford it by any other means;
Hosting doctors
Hosting doctors and other medical specialists twice a year, who have treated over 100 children and adults from throughout these islands;
Purchasing wheelchairs
Purchasing wheelchairs for those visiting the capital who would otherwise be confined to their hotel rooms, and funding travel expenses for the disabled children’s parents;
Raising funds
Raising funds to furbish local clinics with equipment, as well as to purchase orthotics and prosthetic appliances.
Why Become
a Volunteer?
The work of the Physically Challenged Children’s Committee would be impossible without the support of our volunteers!
If you wish to get more involved, we encourage you to consider joining the Committee, which works diligently to ensure that Bahamian children suffering from varying physical disorders are able to receive the treatment they need, and ultimately, live better quality lives.
