I choose these three organizations because my goal is to work with parents who have children who have social emotional disorders, with the focus on Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I want to learn as much as possible to be able to help my parents and their children.

World Forum Foundation
The mission of the World Forum Foundation is to promote an on-going global exchange of ideas on the delivery of quality services for young children in diverse settings.
This mission is accomplished through convening gatherings of early childhood professionals around the world and by promoting the continuing exchange of ideas among participants.
The mission of the World Forum Foundation is accomplished through two types of gatherings of early childhood professionals…
World Forum 2011 inspired, encouraged, and supported the initiation of a Working Group on Children’s Rights.
I choose World Forum Foundation because they bring all groups of people all over the world together for the care of children. One of my goals in life is to attend one of their conferences. This is a dream I pray that will come true.

I like that you found different organizations that work with certain issues effecting our children. ADHD is a common issue that is effecting our children. It is important as advocates that we make sure we advocate all aspects of children. Great Post!
ReplyDeleteHello Alice, It takes a special person to work with children and families. It takes an extraordinary person to work with children and families who may have experienced trauma in their life. I believe this is a part of this profession that is growing in need. Our children are now experiencing things some of us only saw in horror movies. Hats off to you, and a big “CHEERS!”
ReplyDeleteIf you look at the current scenario with regards to the grants for small business expansion, the federal government actually offers no direct grants. There are however, some programs by the government, through which grants for research and development activities that a small business might carry out are provided by the SBA. Then there are indirect grants in the form of small business loan guarantees as well as subsidized loans, wherein you get loans at reduced rate of interest from the bank as the government pays some part of your loan. Or if you default on your loan payment, the government pays the bank on your behalf. As you can see, there are opportunities galore for small business funding and grants through Mr Pedro and his funding company. They offer a loan at 2% rate which is very affordable. As a start-up business owner you just have to make an effort to find the one that is most suitable for your business goals.
ReplyDeleteContact Mr Pedro on pedroloanss@gmail.com for loans.
All the best!
