| Your Gift Will Help People Like Selima |
|
Selima Begum is the mother of a 7-year-old boy with cerebral palsy. They live in Tuker Bazar Union, Bangladesh.
Since her divorce, Selima struggled to provide necessary medical care for her son, at times having to forgo routine medical treatments because of a lack of money.
She knew disability allowances existed, but the process for requesting one was opaque to her. After several years of being unable to find this information, she lost hope of ever receiving the assistance.
Then she began to attend meetings sponsored by The Carter Center. The meetings teach women how to request information from their government, information that can improve their lives and help lift communities out of poverty.
Support like yours helped Selima learn how to access government aid. And today, her son receives regular health care.
She says, "If women have information, they can do anything… They will be able to change their lives."
Please make a gift now. Help change the lives of women like Selima »
