Step Up is a registered, community-based non-profit organization in Malawi committed to improving the health, dignity, and inclusion of children and youths with disabilities. Our mission is to ensure that every child, regardless of their physical or developmental condition, has the opportunity to live a full, independent, and joyful life. Malawi faces a severe shortage of rehabilitation services, with fewer than 40 public physiotherapy clinics serving over 20 million people. This shortage leaves countless children with disabilities without access to essential support. Founded in 2019 and formally registered in 2021, Step Up was created in response to this urgent gap in care. We focus especially on reaching children in low-income, high-need communities like Ndirande Township in Blantyre, where public services are extremely limited. Step Up delivers core community-based rehabilitation (CBR) services that include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, caregiver training, psychosocial support, and inclusive early childhood development. We run a free physiotherapy and rehabilitation center in Ndirande, currently serving over 40 children and youths with disabilities. Our team includes volunteer physiotherapists, an occupational therapist, and a social worker. All of us share a commitment to working closely with families and caregivers - because we believe that sustainable impact starts at the community level. But our mission goes beyond therapy. We are passionate about advocacy, inclusion, and rights. Our work seeks to break the stigma surrounding disability and to build a society that not only supports but embraces diversity. We raise awareness about disability rights, promote access to education, and empower parents - especially mothers of children with disabilities - with knowledge, confidence, and tools to support their children. In the long term, Step Up is working to create a network of free rehabilitation centers in underserved rural and urban areas across Malawi. Our vision is to be a national model of inclusive, grassroots healthcare - ensuring that no child with a disability is left behind due to poverty, geography, or stigma. At its core, Step Up's mission is about giving children with disabilities the chance to live and enjoy life like any other child. We are building a world where their potential is not only recognized but fully supported - where inclusion is not a favor, but a right.

CORE VALUES Integrity Leadership Service Accountability Transparency Love Respect Unity Teamwork PROJECT SUMMARY In spite of planned development and special provision for accelerated socio-economic development of neglected/disadvantaged sections, the issue of orphan, semi orphan and street children is not properly addressed. In our project area many Orphan, Semi Orphan and Street Children are found. The problem of orphan / street children is acute due to urbanization and industrialization. Due to the Deaths of HIV/AIDS affected persons, Re-marriage of Deserted / Widowed / Divorce women, Absence of love and security in the families, Family disputes, Unwanted pregnancy of Trafficking / Sexually exploited girls; these orphan and street children are left without care and support. These children are involved in rag picking; pick pocketing and participating in anti social, criminal activities. Therefore, we envisage mainstreaming these children in the national building by providing care, support and protection in our Promise Giving Children's Family. Promise Giving Children's Family houses orphans and vulnerable children and needy families and provides care support and protection for them. This home has 10 workers among them cooks, cleaners, teachers, caretakers and administrators. All children are provided with 3 times nutritious food, clean water, books, school uniforms, clothing, beddings, sanitary pads, diapers, water, soap detergents and shoes as well as psychological and spiritual support. Every child has an opportunity for indoor and outdoor recreation and play facilities. We also support them to realize their potentials, careers and talents so as to become self-reliant and responsible members of the society. We as Promise Giving Children's Family aim to bring a service of hope to the needy and vulnerable children and families in the community. PROBLEM STATEMENT The problem of the orphaned, needy and vulnerable children is acute due to poverty levels in our communities thus most families are unable to afford basic needs for their children. There is also an increase of children who are affected and infected with HIV/AIDS while others have been orphaned as a result of the deaths of AIDS affected persons. The situation is also further aggravated by the absence of love and security and unwanted pregnancy of sexually exploited girls conflict, social injustices, gender violence etc. These children are involved in rag picking, pick pocketing, participating in anti-social, criminal activities. FUTURE MAJOR VISION We are aspiring to have our own compound where we don't pay the rent and if possible, to expand from the ordinary home to group of schools where our children will get opportunity to be at the orphanage and proceed to our junior school, senior school up to the highest level possible. The center will also ensure that all the beneficiaries who have completed school/college will have a placement, this shall include vulnerable children who have completed the vocational training hence they will be provided by the working capital inform of tools and materials to start off. CONCLUSION Children symbolizes the continuation of generation; it shows that when they are well motivated and protected our future becomes brighter. When they are nurtured in the best way the world shall be better place to live in. This is why we come with lots of humility to you to help us fulfill the idea of the project above so that we can help the children to realize their dreams in different ways. We shall appreciate your partnership and promise that no support will be wasted and every coin shall be accounted for for the benefit of the children. We need the children to be cared for at all cost no matter the background where that child comes and that is why whenever the county officer knocked the door to bring in a child into our premises, we always receive them with open heart and love.

Foundation Asian Raisins has been one of the leading organizations in combating racism against East and Southeast Asian people in the Netherlands since March 2020. We do this together with volunteers through three program themes: Storytelling, Action, and Community. Our Programs 1) Showcasing the diversity within East and Southeast Asian communities in the Netherlands. 2) Preventing, identifying, and taking action against racist incidents. 3) Creating a space where people from these communities can come together. With the goal of achieving an equal, representative, inclusive, and ultimately racism-free Netherlands. Our mission Asian Raisins fights racism against people of East- and Southeast Asian descent in the Netherlands. Our vission We fight for a country in which East and Southeast Asian people can recognise themselves as worthy human beings in every facet of society; not as a stereotype, second class citizen or laughingstock. In this country, East and Southeast Asian people could go outside without fear of being called names by strangers and racist comments would not be normalised as a joke. Everyone of East and Southeast Asian descent should be able to be proud of their roots, appearance and culture. In order to achieve these aspirations, an intersectional change of the system is required: in the media, politics, education and eventually society. Because no one else is doing it, we take matters into our own hands. We open the dialogue with governments, organisations and influential individuals. We take the streets to protest. We conduct awareness campaigns and rap racist parties over the knuckles. We will not wait any longer and claim our rightful place in The Netherlands ourselves. And you?
