The Gek sisters, graduates of a Special Education school, are passionate about honing the skills they developed during their time there. However, after graduation, the structured support of the school system fades, and many young adults like the Gek sisters find themselves facing a “service cliff”.

But this doesn’t have to be their story.

Let’s empower the Gek sisters to stay engaged, continue growing their talents, and discover their true strengths through diamond art. Support them – and their families – as they work towards a brighter future.
