    About Us

    We envision a world where children & adults with different abilities don’t have to change to fit in—where communities, schools, and systems evolve to honor every child's unique brilliance. Through collaboration, compassion, and creativity, we are shaping a future where all children thrive just as they are.

    The 7Q Foundation was founded to support families navigating special needs, born from the experiences of Zidan Ali, a spirited boy , who has a genetic deletion on chromosome 7Q, leading to conditions such as autism, microcephaly, hypotonia, and more. Despite these challenges, Zidan radiates joy and embraces life to the fullest.

    His family—parents Hafsa and Ali, and loving older brother Usayd—feel incredibly fortunate to have him in their lives. Through Zidan, they’ve gained a unique perspective on the world, inspiring them to advocate for inclusivity and equal opportunities for all. They believe it’s not about making everyone fit in; rather, it’s about the world adapting to be more inclusive.

    With the support of our wonderful community in Virginia, The 7Q Foundation aims to create a space where families can unite under a shared mission.
