Our Belief
At You're Not Forgotten Inc., we are aware that life can take unexpected turns, and anyone can face the challenges of disability or orphanhood at any moment. We believe in a future where every child and individual in need can say with confidence: "I am seen, I am heard, I am not forgotten."
Our Vision
To be part of the solution. We envision a world where every individual, regardless of their life's journey, has the support and resources needed to not just survive but thrive. We are committed to foster a community where compassion, understanding, and inclusivity are at the forefront.
Our Approach
We believe in the power of community and collaboration. Our approach is hands-on, working directly with the communities to understand different needs and tailor our programs accordingly. We partner with local leaders, orphanages and centers for the disabled, global organizations, and passionate people to drive change and make a tangible impact.
