In honor of this milestone, we are going on a collaborative health walk with the Umuahia chapter of the University of Nigeria Alumni Association (UNAA) in Umuahia on the 9th of November, 2024.

This event is not only an opportunity to celebrate TSCF’s achievements but also to increase community awareness about our mission; providing treatment to Clubfoot patients and supporting individuals with Cerebral Palsy (CP).
Our objective is to engage the Umuahia community and bring much-needed attention to TSCF’s work, fostering a supportive environment for individuals and families affected by Clubfoot and Cerebral Palsy.

Special Children's Day Celebration
2025-05-31
Good day, everyone.
Our children’s day celebration is coming up 31st of May, 2025.
It is important for us to note that, Children’s Day is a time to celebrate the joys of childhood, and we believe that every child, regardless of ability, deserves to partake in the festivities. Unfortunately, many children with disabilities are often excluded from such celebratory occasions due to societal neglect and lack of access. At TSCF, we are committed to changing this narrative by ensuring that these children with disabilities have an opportunity to experience the excitement and happiness that come with Children’s Day.
To make this event a success, we seek support in the form of donations, sponsorships, or in-kind contributions. We plan to provide:
• Entertainment: Clowns, music, dance, games, and fun activities tailored to the children’s abilities.
• Refreshments: Nutritious meals, snacks, and drinks to keep the children energized throughout the celebration.
• Presents: Gift packs containing toys, educational materials.
Kindly reach out to us to make your donations.
