Kelly Olsthoorn – volunteer

I work professionally with children that are severely multiple handicapped. Their situation from birth is the same as those of the children in Bangladesh the PhySCI Foundation supports. However,  the Dutch children are helped by many professionals in many ways to develop themselves to the maximum of their potential. Ria Schmitz informed me about the problems multiple handicapped children in Bangladesh have. I decided to go to Bangladesh as a volunteer to offer professional help to the mothers and caretakers in improving opportunities for play to stimulate the educational development of the children and facilitate communication with them.
