I am deeply grateful for their efforts."

"Having a child with a disability brings many challenges, and providing for our family’s needs has often been difficult. CCCWGD's assistance has eased our burden significantly. The food and household essentials they provide mean we can focus on caring for our child instead of worrying about daily survival. They have brought comfort and hope to our home."
