A community deserted



I come from Chipata City with a community for people living with disabilities.This community was established in 1966. However, when I first visited the community 3 years ago,I found all the children were not going to school due to extreme poverty and their guardians are either blind so they literally depend on begging for alms by the road side.



With help of well wishers, I registered 12 children in  schoool from the very community .



Unfortunately,non of the adults from this community have means of survival for they all depend alms.



They have one meal per day and even the youngest who is 2 years old eat once per day.



The community has been deserted.
