What do we do?

Imagine Charity

Raise Awareness
Imagine Charity aims to raise both local and international awareness to the disability in order to respond to the essential needs of adults and children suffering from Cerebral Palsy. This is done in to improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.
Raise Funds
Through fund raising events and sponsorship solicitation we aim to raise funds to facilitate our various initiatives to help those affected by Cerebral Palsy.
Care, Respite, Education and Lifestyle
Imagine Charity aims to create facilities that support the life of those living with the disability. This includes proper care and education, therapy and daily stimulation, as well as “work” tailored to their specific requirements. Those in respite care will be taken care of in a safe and familiar environment when their families require a reprieve from the day to day activities involved in taking care of someone with this disability.

What is
cerebral palsy?

I

Cerebral Palsy is a neurological disorder described by the loss or impairment of motor function. It is caused by brain damage, either through injury or abnormal development of the brain – before, during or shortly after birth.

Cerebral Palsy affects body movement, muscle control, muscle coordination, muscle tone, reflex, posture and balance. It can also impact fine motor skills, gross motor skills and oral motor functioning.

Cerebral Palsy is a non-life threatening, incurable, non-progressive, and permanent brain disorder. Unfortunately, it is the result of a one-time permanent brain injury that will not produce further degeneration of the brain. The brain does not “heal” as other parts of the body might, thus cerebral palsy itself will not change for better or worse during a person’s lifetime.

Help those with Cerebral Palsy

Your donation to Imagine Charity can help raise awareness and provide essential support to those affected by Cerebral Palsy.

IMAGINE TOWN – UNDERBERG KZN

Imagine Charity has kicked off its initial project to build and develop a school and respite care facility where adults and children suffering from Cerebral Palsy will be provided with the proper education, therapy and daily stimulation they need, tailored to their specific requirements. Those in respite care will be taken care of in a safe and familiar environment when their families require a reprieve from the day to day activities involved in taking care of someone with this disability.

Those suffering from Cerebral Palsy can live a more comfortable and happy life

Treating Cerebral Palsy is almost as complex as the condition is, and there’s no cookie-cutter approach as each individual is affected differently. Although the brain injury that causes Cerebral Palsy cannot be healed, the resulting physical impairment can be managed with a wide range of treatments and therapies.

Thank you to everyone that made a contribution to the party at Ratanang this year. We thank every individual that made the time to be there. A special shout out to businesses SIS Global, House of Costumes & Psiber Insurance for taking time out of your business day to give back something to those less fortunate than ourselves. Thank you for helping us make a difference but mostly thank you for the gift of love to the Ratanang Family. It was truly a privilege, an honour and the biggest blessing for us all to have been a part of this wonderful celebration. We hope that you will find some of that joy in the sharing of our video and photos….

Like last year, a beautifully festive setting was created for all the children and their parents to enjoy their year-end celebration. We are honoured to be part of this event and thank Ratanang Group for sharing this day with us.
