About Enabled Children Initiative

The Enabled Children Initiative (ECI) is an independent charity organization registered in the United Kingdom, and as a 501(c)(3) in the USA with a charity branch in Afghanistan (number 465). ECI supports children in Afghanistan with disabilities with residential, educational and income generation support for families. Through our 5 programs, we support children with disabilities who are the most vulnerable—abandoned by families living in extreme poverty who have no resources to cope, or unclaimed by family after the death of one or both parents. We also work with families with disabled children, providing educational and income generation support, in order to prevent the abandonment or institutionalization of children with disabilities. ECI improves the children’s quality of life and helps them reach their full potential.
