Dara’s story
Dara was only 11 years old when he lost his hand and most of his eyesight when he picked up an unexploded ordnance he found on his family farm. Concerned about being able to provide the special care and education now needed, Dara’s parents were grateful when the Arrupe Centre, established by Bishop Enrique ‘Kike’ Figaredo Alvargonzalez, offered their son a home and the support he needs. Now, two years on, Dara has been able to learn Braille, enjoys going to school and playing with his friends at the home. There are many more children like Dara who rely on the life-changing support provided by Bishop Kike and the Arrupe Centre. Your gift today can help the Centre reach out to children and young adults with disability and help empower them to create a bright future.
