HOPE Qatar Centre for children with special needs has been conducting a highly successful and popular annual event Message of HOPE since 2010 as part of the organization’s mission to spread awareness in the community about children with disabilities, and the need to provide them appropriate and timely educational and training opportunities.
These events showcases individuals or groups of individuals who in spite of their challenges and disabilities, have gone on to become successful, famous, and in the process – self advocates for persons with disabilities across the world. The organization also uses this opportunity to mobilize continued corporate support to help sustain the ambitious programs of HOPE Qatar in service of children with special needs.
The message of HOPE is that if given the right opportunities at the right time, children with special needs can achieve great success, and it is our collective responsibility to ensure that such opportunities are provided to them so that they become value adding members of the society and will not be considered as a social liability.
