The key to every successful society is education. This fact is well recognized at Chosen Children, where education comes in all forms and the needs of each child is acknowledged. The school provides a classroom environment in which the children learn tasks such as tying shoelaces and pressing buttons. Education also comes in the shape of helping in the home. Some of the higher functional children are allocated special chores, like cleaning up after meals or putting away toys. These all help to create a sense of belonging. The eventual aim allows the children, as far as possible, to develop those wings of independence for the rest of their lives.

Physical therapy is another integral part of the children's education and journey towards independence. The physical therapy center will be the largest in the country with a hydrotherapy center and special equipment to suit all the needs of the children. For children with lower functional ability, freedom of movement is perhaps their wings to independence. The physical therapists working at CCV show more than a professional interest in the children's development and progress. The staff and children feel a sense of satisfaction when any task is successfully completed.

The combination of these roots and wings is what makes a visit to the Village a must. Without this marriage of security and freedom, the atmosphere and success of the Village could not exist. For as long as these children need our help, we need your help in keeping the Chosen Children Village successful.(Continue)

CHOSEN CHILDREN VILLAGE FOUNDATION is maintained solely through donations, sponsorships and grants and has a Board of Trustees whose members serve without compensation.
