Inspire to Do Summer Camp Beijing, China Paralympics 2008 with Narration

Inspire to Do (www.inspiretodo.org) inspires dreams for special needs children in orphanages by exposing them to real world opportunities.
By sharing our world with the disabled children in orphanages we enable them to expand their horizons. Reciprocally, we enrich our communities by raising awareness that these children can be vibrant, contributing members of our society despite their differences. The Inspire to Do summer camp offers the children opportunities to participate in and see the world beyond the walls of their disabilities and physical parameters. Led by a pediatric therapist and trained counselors, the children are assisted in accessing their communities to their greatest potential. They learn skills for activities of daily living at their level of function, such as accessing transportation, managing money, or learning problem solving skills to participate in their communities in relevant ways. We share inspiring experiences with the children that expand their perceptions of what is possible as well as increase their independence in participating as functional members of society. As a result, they gain confidence, respect, and dignity.
