Educational/Entrepreneurial Skill Sponsorship.
Education is both the means as well as the end to a better life: the means because it empowers an individual to earn his/her livelihood and the end because it increases one’s awareness on a range of issues – from healthcare to appropriate social behaviour to understanding one’s rights – and in the process help him/her evolve as a better citizen.
Doubtless, education is the most powerful catalyst for social transformation. But child education cannot be done in isolation. A child will go to school only if the family, particularly the mother, is assured of healthcare and empowered. Moreover, when an elder sibling is relevantly skilled to be employable and begins earning, the journey of empowerment continues beyond the present generation.
Our objective is to offer good qualitative education, total family care and rekindle hope for their creation; thereby reintegrating them back into the society as resourceful citizens. We therefore soliciting for your support and encouragement. We are besieged with challenges in training them and to give them qualitative education. Please find below our areas of urgent needs:
1) Educational sponsorship: Eighty percent of the beneficiaries of this foundation are street hawkers, we picked them up to refined them for a better society. As it stands, the number are increasingly multiplying on daily basis. As the foundation grows, due to Covid-19 pandemic most of our benefactors/benefactresses have not been meeting up with the demand of financial assistance, . We solicit for your assistance to enable us reach out to them. To train a child for one year cost $2195. For the time being, we have more than forty students on scholarship and many on vocational and entrepreneurial skills.
2) Welfare: Foodstuff, provision, toiletries, and school materials are part of our daily challenges.
3) Mobility: We also appeal for a mobility to enable us to reach out to those children in remote villages. We need a strong car (truck) that can assist us to convey food materials to them. and to carry out our humanitarian assistance to the needy.
4) Medicals: a lot of funds are being spent seasonally. We are in need of help to be able to give them medical attention and to foot their medical bills.
5) Equipment for vocational and Entrepreneurial skills.: The foundation runs a food processing packaging as a way of getting funds to help the less privileges and to train the students. We have been partnering with a company in processing our food items for sales. We need to build our own factory, a way of helping those that have skill acquisition to acquaint themselves with entrepreneurial skill so as to be useful to themselves and society.
6.) Help Vulnerable children access basic education and basic healthcare facilities. You can sponsor a child by donating no matter how small. Drops of water make a full bucket.
All these and many more are the pressing problems and challenges facing us. We believe with you, we can do more.
Thanks in anticipation of your fatherly assistance and cooperation.
