Tabitha Ministry places education at the heart of its mission, believing that knowledge is the key to real change and growth for children. The ministry supports children in their educational journey through practical programs designed to improve their academic performance and develop their mental and skill capacities. The ministry provides school bags and stationery for each child at the beginning of the school year, encouraging them to continue their education while feeling supported and cared for. It organizes remedial classes and reading lessons aimed at raising academic achievement, especially in core subjects such as Arabic, mathematics, and reading. Interactive teaching methods are used to foster a love for learning and encourage children to think creatively and collaborate with others. Children are followed up individually to identify learning difficulties and address them in cooperation with their families and teachers. Through this comprehensive educational support, Tabitha Ministry seeks to open new horizons for children and empower them to build a brighter future.

Medical care activities include conducting regular medical check-ups and tests for children to ensure their overall health, organizing vision screening campaigns to check eyesight and address any problems early, and providing necessary medications and treatments for children in need. The ministry also contributes to the costs of surgeries for cases requiring specialized medical intervention and raises health awareness among mothers and children regarding proper nutrition, personal hygiene, and prevention of common diseases. Through this approach, Tabitha Ministry aims to provide integrated care that protects the child’s body, mind, and spirit in a safe and nurturing environment.
Tabitha Ministry is keen to support the psychological and recreational aspects of children, based on the belief that joy is an essential part of a child’s healthy development. Therefore, the ministry organizes special celebrations throughout the year for children’s birthdays and Children’s Day, providing moments of happiness and a sense of value and belonging. These celebrations include organizing birthday parties that bring children together in an atmosphere of joy and participation, giving symbolic gifts and special cakes for each child to celebrate their birthday, and holding an annual Children’s Day celebration on November 20th, featuring artistic performances, games, and recreational activities that foster a spirit of community and love among the children. Through these loving gatherings, Tabitha Ministry seeks to ensure that every child feels loved, accepted, and has a special place in the hearts of both the ministry and the community.
Tabitha Ministry organizes recreational trips for individuals with intellectual disabilities as part of psychological and social support. These trips provide an opportunity for participants to integrate, enjoy themselves, and break the daily routine. During these outings, the children show joy and excitement, as these activities enhance their sense of happiness and belonging.
In the family domain, Tabitha Ministry provides support through a specialized consultant for intellectual disabilities, aiming to empower mothers and equip them with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively care for and interact with their children. Training covers a variety of topics, including understanding the nature of intellectual disabilities, managing challenging behaviors, addressing issues related to puberty, knowing their rights and responsibilities in society, and understanding the family’s role in developing the child’s social skills and independence. The ministry believes that supporting the family is the foundation for the success of any intervention or program. Therefore, it ensures that mothers are active partners in their children’s journey toward a better life.
As part of its focus on the psychological and spiritual support of mothers caring for children with intellectual disabilities, Tabitha Ministry introduced the idea of organizing spiritual days. These are special gatherings held away from daily responsibilities, where mothers are asked to attend without their children to give them a real opportunity to rest and rejuvenate. The objectives of these days include providing time for quiet, prayer, and reflection; renewing psychological and spiritual strength after the pressures of daily life; fostering a sense of hope amid challenges; sharing experiences and mutual support among mothers; and creating a space where mothers feel heard, valued, and cared for.
