I can't possibly go on outreach programs like Angelina Jolie. How i wish i can. I can't possibly go to places and help others with the limited resources i have. I don't have the money, i don't have the means. My willingness is not enough and that's a fact. It has been my life-long dream to somewhat touch other people's lives and make even a little change in this big world. And now, i think my little act of letting other people know about how they can help others can be a good start.
RICAFI. Rainbow Intervention Center for Autism Foundation, Inc.
132 Fatima St. Jacinto, Davao City
As the name implies, RICAFI is a place for special children. The school aims to give hope to children with autism and to their parents, hence, the name RAINBOW. It is owned and operated by parents with autistic children and offers individualized programs.
VISION: Children with autism are able to achieve a level of independence and self-reliance so they can become productive and socially accepted members of the society and community.
MISSION: Appropriate and affordable education and behavioral programs and services for children with autism and their families in Davao City.
Spending time with these kids is definitely a life-changing experience for me. I realized how noble and fulfilling a teacher's life is. I actually envy RICAFI's teachers who display lots of patience and pure motherly-love towards these special kids just to enable them to achieve their full potential. I salute all those parents who have not given up on loving, caring and supporting their kids. I know it is not easy and it takes a lot of courage to go on and be with their kids in this life-long journey. Every day is a new challenge. Every single day gives hope. And there's no reason to ever give up.
We can all help these special kids in our own little ways. These children need our support. Feel free contact the school for inquiries at TEL. NO.: (082) 305-4265 ; (63)9193274952.
