OUR PROJECTS


 

OUT-OF-SCHOOL PROJECT

​

This project aims at creating a portfolio whereby we can have all that is needed to send any out-of-school rural child to school. This project covers all the resources and funds that is needed for scholarships in every academic year in an identified rural community.

Such resources includes books, school shoes and bags, school uniforms, computers, tuition fees and such other fees that a child might be asked to pay in the course of the academic year.



DAMAGE CONTROL PROJECT

 This project caters for all kinds of environmental crisis/harzards within the rural communities and all kinds of epidemics. It also looks to help in certain seasonal problems plaguing our rural communities such as fire outbreaks and dryness of streams that leads to shortage of good drinking water in the villages.
Therefore, this project packages relief, immunization and vaccines and any other material that maybe need to curb the disaster at hand.

BACKERS PROJECT


This project is aimed at backing up all widows, orphans and those referred to as less-priviledged in the rural communities.
The project is packaged to help in bringing about HELP such as educationally, economically, socially and otherwise.  

 

WIDOWS WITHOUT CHILDREN (WWC)​

​

This project covers only those who are identified as widows without children (WWC) in the rural communities. In most African communities, some widows are made not to remarry with the belief that their late husbands will kill them if they do.  As a result, they are forced to enter a concubinage relationship with their late husbands' brothers.
A lot of widows have debunked and resisted this belief and have also remained as widows without children (for those of them that never had children or that lost theirs at the demise of their spouse.

This project identifies with their strength and partners with them in achieving their dreams without becoming a liability to anyone.

FLAIR-SHOWCASE PROJECT

This project helps the youths in the rural communities to develop and showcase their flair.  One of the greatest problems of the rural dwellers is the inability to identify their God given talent and gift.  
The project showcases all kinds of skill-acquisition programmme for the youth in the rural area to engage in especially in their areas of specialization.  Becoming a genius in your calling is the hallmark here.
You can participate in any of our projects by volunteering, sharing our activities in our blog, funding or partnering in any meaningful way that can help bring sustainable development to that person who has almost lost hope in the rural area today.

CHARITY VERSUS DEVELOPMENT

“ True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring. ” -Reverend Martin Luther King, 1967 [1]    http://www.globalresearch.ca/charity-versus-solidarity-do-development-ngos-do-more-harm-than-good/5343236 Charity can be defined as giving to help make people’s lives better while community development is moving beyond charity to walk together and help improve people’s lives. Today, lots of people prefer to do charity than being committed in partnering to improve people's standard of living.  Community development does not only improve the lives of others around us but also helps to improve ours as partners.  https://attackpoverty.org/2011/charity-vs-development/ The following table according to Cooperative Baptist Fellowship best describe the differences between charity and community development.

WHERE IS THE LOVE

Image
As the world celebrates 'global day of parents' on the1st of June every year, I cant help but wonder what the same world thinks about those who are living and growing without having the experience of what a mother/father relationship is.  These are people who are constantly reminded by caregivers that they are not their parents and should therefore be grateful for whatever attempt they make in providing food, shelter, clothing and security which forms the basic needs of every human being. The task of caring for someone else in ones real poor state is a huge one and huge(er) is even the task of trully caring in the real sense of the word 'care'.  Then, the real issue is what could be the experience of a child who lives with people that present themselves as "foster parents" but are not parents in any sense of it.  i just hope these children will grow up and become parents than the people they see and live with today. The role of a foster parent according
