Hello! Thank you for supporting PACK: Project Adventure Care for Kids! We Are a small group of Early Intervention specialists providing evaluations for at-risk children living in foreign orphanages. In addition to identifying children in need of physical, occupational, speech-language, and developmental therapy services, we are also committed to training orphanage staff and caregivers in basic intervention strategies. Our mission is to identify these children early, start intervention as soon as possible, and have a plan in place for adoptive families as soon as their children come home. By targeting these issues early, we hope to give parents a head start in planning for the needs of their new family. Your donations will help us in this mission. Your dollars will go directly to the costs of evaluation supplies, age-appropriate toys and books, and training programs. Donations will also help to cover costs of transportation, lodging, and translators; which, at this time, are provided by the orphanages we are serving. Our upcoming trip is to Ti Mache, Haiti! We will be at the Creche Enfant de L'Jesus for seven days evaluating about 30 children under the age of 3. This orphanage is a shining example of care and comfort in a country devestated by poverty and a lack of infrastructure. Please visit www.chances4children.org to learn more about this special place. Thank you again for your support! We hope to see you at one of our many fundraising events.
