Twice a year Sana holds group-wide picnics or entertainment events that bring members of our 15 parent support groups and their children together to meet and enjoy a day out. These events bring together over 400 individuals - to manage this we look for volunteers who are willing to help and interact with people who are different. Check out our list of past volunteers.
Sana also organises sports coaching practices during the spring and summer activities. This event is dependent on whether we get volunteers to coach our kids with special needs, as well as practice locations.
Sana also needs volunteers at our fundraising events to help seat our guests, sell raffle tickets and help us in managing the event.
Sana holds around 180 support group meetings where we get specialists and professionals in different fields to facilitate discussion of topics related to lives of our families. We seek specialists in the field of disability: doctors, therapists, or educators. We also welcome speakers about general interests such as: homeopathy, nutrition and others. Contact us to let us know you can help.
You can help raise awareness about disability with our support. Sana holds projects to raise community awareness about disability such as reading stories about disability at schools, organising water distribution at traffic lights during Ramadan, or even hold an event at a school or your place of work to raise funds. If you have an idea, let us know!
