KAPI Foundation continued their good cause on Monday when they visited the Red Cross Special Education Resource Centre at Hohola in Port Moresby to donate various goods and K1,000 to assist them in running their programs.

The Red Cross Special Education resource centre is one of the few schools in the country that caters for the special needs of young children with learning disabilities in Papua New Guinea.

The donated goods included cartons of readers, encyclopedias, two bales of second hand clothes, and a thousand kina to the centre.

Founder, Brown Kapi said his foundation was targeting people with special needs to better their lives as any other able person.

The foundation chose the centre as the first school they have donated cash and kind all worth around K6,000 to K7,000.

He encouraged the students to live a positive life- not to let their situation prevent them from doing what they wanted to do.

“Don’t limit yourselves by looking at your disability, the sky is the only limit but you can still go places,” he said.

Christine Kenia a representative from Red Cross Special Education thanked the Kapi Foundation for choosing their school as the foundation’s first school to visit assist them.

She expressed her gratitude saying that the day was the beginning of a partnership between both organizations.
