Over the past four years, the Fenixia Foundation’s multi-disciplinary team of child development professionals has provided assessment and support services to special education programs in public schools in the southern Philippines. We have also led continuing education trainings for parents, educators and community members involved in the care of children with special needs. Through partnerships with businesses and non-profit organizations in the Philippines and the US, the Fenixia Foundation has delivered medical and therapeutic services, durable medical equipment and educational materials to rural children with special needs who do not otherwise have access to these resources. Additionally, the foundation has created opportunities for special needs families to network, socialize and enjoy themselves, such as a Family Fun Day in 2018 and an inclusive summer camp experience in collaboration with The Dare to Dream Foundation in 2019. Fenixia is also providing educational programming for Bay Area families of children with special needs. Our US-based educational activities have included presentations for special needs PTOs, workshops for corporate affinity groups and other non-profits supporting underserved communities.
