Who We are
MyHeart for Disabilities was founded in 2008 in Jordan to be a voice for those who need it.

How we operate
MyHeart operates through a project-based approach and is overseen by a governing board that meets monthly to monitor progress and identify opportunities for growth. The board provides guidance and support to the executive leadership in the areas of community outreach, projects, and funding, and approves project plans and budgets.
Each project is led by a member of MyHeart’s leadership team and funded through private donations. Members of the board and leadership team volunteer their time and expertise in full commitment to MyHeart’s mission of serving the community with love and support—especially people with disabilities among Jordanian citizens and Syrian and Iraqi refugees—to strengthen their sense of welcome and belonging.
MyHeart also relies on a strong network of more than 120 volunteers who contribute to implementing programs and providing ongoing support.
Our Vision
Accelerating Christian ministry within the community of persons with disabilities in Jordan, and promoting a dignified and inclusive life for them in society.
Our Mission
Proclaiming the Gospel and equipping churches for evangelism and discipleship among people affected by disability, and building an inclusive environment that enables persons with disabilities to realize their full potential through the provision of support and services.
Core Values
Our central value is to follow GOD’s example of GRACE, LOVE and SERVICE to “these least of them”. In Jordanian society, disabled people are among the most shunned and the least valued.
- Equal Rights – Persons with disabilities should enjoy equal rights and opportunities and be included in mainstream society, with respect and dignity. Through material support, empowerment, knowledge sharing and adapted buildings, we believe these changes can become a reality.
- Social and Financial Integrity – We care deeply about our work and our reputation. We do not compromise our ethics, our values, or our professionalism. We take personal responsibility and use good judgment to drive everything we do.
- Accountability – We are countable to our donors and partners, and responsible for our actions and their results. As such, we are committed to quality, competence and excellence in the process of executing our decisions.
- Love – Love, empathy, patience and understanding create the foundation for everything we do. They make personal joy, happiness and social progress possible.
- Commitment – We are committed to foster increased value to disabled individuals, by providing them with the right help, without condescendence.
- Partnership – We collaborate with the right stakeholders to co-create and deliver services and programs that address the real challenges facing persons with disabilities, across the country.
- Inspiration – We are passionate about creating a sustainable future and take action to make it happen. Through our actions, we inspire others to act and do the same.
- Team Work – We make the most of opportunities and overcome challenges by working together as a team. Our strength comes from unity and collaboration, supported by humility and open- mindedness.
