Unfortunately, Egypt is one of the countries in which mental health is uncared for. Ignorance of its importance has caused a terrifying increase in the number of unmanaged cases in the last decade. Driven by the sense of responsibility towards our community, SCOCH, in partnership with ADVANCE, has started a proposition to raise public awareness about the most common developmental, psychological and psychiatric disorders of Children in Egypt. ADHD, OCD, Autism & the psychological effects of abuse on children lie on the top of the list. After months of preparation, seminars & workshops, the campaign has finally started -as a first step- months ago. The goal was to raise awareness on the most common developmental disorder in Egypt: Autism, amongst the future physicians of the Kasr Al-Ainy School of Medicine.

With an idea very similar to the "Teddy Bear Hospital" initiative, SCOCH takes its part in the fight against cancer. Throughout the last couple of years, active SCOCH team members have planned many visits to the fortress that leads the fight against the deadly disease: the 57357 hospital. It is one of the largest in the Middle East region, specializing in the treatment and rehabilitation of children with tumours. Devoted volunteers get to know their enemy, learn more about management methods, and get closer to the children. This breaks the monotony of their stay and in a way, helps to reduce their suffering.

On the first Friday of every April, Egypt celebrates Orphans’ Day and in 2008, and for the first time, SCOCH organized its own celebration. Hosted by the Suzan Mubarak Child Museum and sponsored by Cilantro Cafe & Amo Hosny restaurants, SSS members shared the day’s celebration with 50 orphans from the "Awlady" orphanage. Although we lacked the experience to organize such an event, the unique spirit, love and devotion as well as the sheer determination of our team, provided an unforgettable outcome. At the end of the day watching the children laughing, playing, enjoying every second and inviting us to their orphanage was worth every moment spent in the preparations. We hope that, in the coming years, the event will be well thought-out, on a bigger scale to include more orphanages, and more cheerful.
