Dear friends,
We are in the
21-century and yet many of our
children with learning difficulties are unjustly deprived from the
basic right of education.
There is an
existing big gap in the Middle East between mainstream schools and special needs
schools. This gap is the lack of existence of schools for children with
learning difficulties.
There are children
with mild to moderate learning difficulties who do not get accepted in
mainstream schools, and yet their impairment is not severe enough for them to
be in special needs schools, resulting in them being left behind or maybe being
home schooled. And if some do get accepted in mainstream schools, they
struggle in these schools due to physical, behavioural, communication or
educational issues. Such mainstream schools lack the proper educational
services and the know-how in dealing with these children.
Therefore, please
allow me to introduce to you Modern Alternative Education (MAE) center.
MAE’s aim is to
provide high quality education and specialized services to fill this gap
for children and young adults aged 8- 18 years old with a variety of moderate
to mild learning difficulties (Asperger’s syndrome, high / mid functioning
autism, ADD, PDD, hyperactivity etc.) by offering a high-standard and
quality alternative education in a safe and caring environment.
MAE is to be the
first non-profit center of its kind in the region.
Your contribution
and support is very much needed and appreciated to make this project a reality.
Please view our Sponsorship Packages and wishlist.
These children are
no less than other children. These are innocent children who did not want
and did not choose to be the way they are, and we owe them their right of
education!
We hope from you to spread the word and share this campaign as much as possible.
