She sadly soon found that these children had been abandoned by their country and the world. She set up and self funded a non profit called HOPE FOR HUMANS in 2012 to offer children as well as their families a range of support with medical care, education, nutrition, hope and love. Dr Gazda believes these children acquired an environmentally induced neuro-developmental disorder that here in America we call autism. She tirelessly advocated for these children around the world , speaking before Congress, the Ugandan Parliament, the CDC, WHO and at many Universities. Her organization was forced to close in Dec of 2017 due to lack of funding. She has never stopped advocating for the Nodding Syndrome victims.
