Give Andrea and Robert a voice through inclusive books
Donation protected
I am writing a children’s book series inspired by my two amazing children with Microcephaly and Autism - Andrea and Robert. These books will teach kindness, inclusion and understanding. With your help I can publish them, create audiobooks, and bring their silent voices to the world. Every bit helps. Thank you very much….
Hello, I’m Haneefa - a single mother to two incredible adult children, Andrea and Robert. Both were born with Microcephaly and Autism, and both have inspired me in ways I cannot begin to explain. Though they are non-verbal, their joy, curiosity and strength have shaped our family’s journey across the globe. Now I am turning that journey into powerful series of children’s books. These stories will teach young readers about inclusion, kindness and the beauty of being different. They’ll show that love doesn’t always need words - just understanding….
I am raising funds to:
-Commission illustrations of Andrea and Robert
-Edit and format the books for print and e-book
-Create an audiobook using my voice
-Spread awareness globally about Microcephaly and Autism
Your support will help me turn our story into something that can help other children and parents feel seen and supported.
Even the smallest donation brings us closer to publishing these books and giving Andrea and Robert the voice they’ve never had.
Thank you so much for believing in our journey.
With love
Haneefa
