Want to join me in making a difference?

I'm raising money to benefit Liddle Kidz Foundation, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

 

As some of you know, I have been chosen as an international global ambassador to participate in the sustainable Liddle Kidz® International Therapeutic Exchange Program (iTEP). This is a huge honor, as over 4,200 people applied for the 30 volunteer spots on the Liddle Kidz Foundation team going to the Philippines.


A little bit about the global outreach program: The team, made up of massage therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, nurses, child life specialists and other healthcare professionals, will be in the Philippines for three weeks, starting in December 2019. We will be working in numerous areas of the country, at hospitals, orphanages, and care centers, providing pediatric massage and touch therapy to the children there. We will also be training the children's caregivers and healthcare staff in massage/touch therapy techniques, so that the therapy can continue long after we return home.



The effects of this program are amazing. Volunteers from the Liddle Kidz trip to Vietnam learned this when the director of one of the charity centers they visited told them of a big change that happened once the caregivers there had incorporated the techniques they had learned: The rate of hospitalizations of the kids from the center had dropped from approximately 40 per year to just 2-3 per year! Incredible, right?

More information about Liddle Kidz Foundation :

Liddle Kidz Foundation Global uses the power of touch to reach the world’s most vulnerable children with experiences of appropriate nurturing touch that they often lack. With nurturing, compassion and touch therapy, children will develop and reach their full potential.  We strive to address their critical tactile needs by working directly with their families and healthcare providers in pediatric hospitals, hospices, and orphanages to provide comprehensive nurturing services, consultation, education, program development and support. We are committed to furthering the development of touch therapy services for vulnerable and underserved populations internationally. Through education and support we work to create replicable and sustainable change. Children are our greatest gift and should be treated with extraordinary care!

Thanks for taking the time to read all of this.

Now… In order to take this part of this global outreach program, I’ve got some fundraising to do. If this seems like something you’d like to support, your donation would be very much appreciated. Keep in mind that donations are tax-deductible and some employers will match them. Best of all, your donation helps to fund very important work.
