💙 **A LITTLE HELP. A LOT OF HEART.**

With the support of friends, we visited families in the underserved autism community in **Boboini** and were able to distribute some much-needed food and diapers.

It may seem like a small gesture, but for families struggling to meet even the most basic needs, **every little bit matters.**

More than the food and diapers, this visit gave us an opportunity to listen, connect and better understand the realities these families face every day.

🎥 This is just a glimpse of that day. **Part 3 is coming Wednesday**, where we share more of the families' stories and the challenges they face.

🙏 To everyone who contributed — thank you for helping us show up for these families.

We know this is only a small step. Our bigger goal is to establish a **subsidised early intervention and therapy centre** so that children from underserved communities can access the support they need.

**Autism shouldn’t depend on your income.** 💙

For many families, the question is not whether their child needs therapy. **It is whether they can afford it.**

This is why Saad Bilal Autism Foundation (SBAF) is fundraising to establish a **subsidised early intervention and therapy centre** for children from underserved and low-income communities.

These families deserve support.
These children deserve opportunities.
**And autism care should not be a privilege reserved for those who can afford it.**

💙 **PART 2 IS HERE | Autism Shouldn’t Depend on Your Income**

In Part 1, we shared the stories of families raising children on the autism spectrum while facing immense financial challenges.

In Part 2, we continue listening to their experiences — the struggles, the sacrifices, and the difficult choices parents are forced to make when the therapy and support their children need are simply beyond their means.

These are **real families. Real children. Real stories.**

For many underserved families, accessing autism therapy is not about whether they want to help their child. **It is about whether they can afford to.**

At **Saad Bilal Autism Foundation (SBAF)**, we are working to change this reality by fundraising to establish a **subsidised early intervention and therapy centre** for children from low-income and underserved communities.

# # # Autism Shouldn’t Depend on Your Income. 💙

We visited families raising children on the autism spectrum who are living with very limited resources.

We sat with them. We listened to their stories. And we witnessed the difficult reality of trying to raise a child with autism when even basic needs are a daily struggle — let alone the cost of specialised therapy and early intervention.

💙 Today, we take the first step towards a dream we've carried for years.

Every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, communicate, and thrive. Yet for many families raising children with autism, quality therapy remains out of reach because of the cost.

That is why the Saad Bilal Autism Foundation (SBAF) is launching Building Hope Together—a campaign to establish and operate a subsidised Autism Therapy & Early Intervention Centre for children and families who need it most.

Our goal is to raise KES 2,000,000 to establish and operate the Centre during its first six months, creating a place where children can access quality therapy and families can find support, guidance, and hope.

This isn't just about opening a centre—it's about opening doors to brighter futures.

❤️ Here's how you can help:

Let’s talk OT! 💙

Occupational Therapy is often misunderstood, especially after an autism diagnosis. So, we sat down with Steve Areba, an Occupational Therapist to have an honest conversation about what OT is, what it does, and how it can support children in their everyday lives.

Because the more we understand, the better we can support our children. 💙
