The Emur Awards
Since its inception in 2015, the Emur Disability Advocacy has recognized and honored many children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, who have positively impacted their schools and communities in some ways. The honorees receive the "EMUR Outstanding Citizen Award” in the month of March every year, in celebration of Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month.
​
Basic Needs Project
For several years, Emur Disability Advocacy has distributed basic needs like food, medical expenses and supplies, furniture, transportation fuel, and grants to orphanages and impoverished families living with intellectual and developmental disabilities, in the US and Nigeria. This project is on-going and we fund needs as they arise. Presently, we are in need of financial help to fund the following items:
-food care packages
-medical expenses for orphans with developmental disabilities.
