 I have never been especially impressed by the heroics of people convinced that they are about to change the world.  I am more awed by … those who … struggle to make one small difference after another – Ellen Goodman

If there is any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not deter or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again – Stephen Grellet

 

Vision and Mission Statement

 

Our Vision:

To help homeless street children off the streets and back on the path to meaningful and productive lives.

 

Our Mission:

To provide family-based, long-term residential care for children under 18 years of age who have been permanently separated from their natural families due to a combination of death, abandonment or serious abuse.

 

To meet the spiritual, physical and educational needs of the children by providing a proper substitute for the parents and home the child has lost.

 

To ensure education, nutrition, hygiene and health care for children using ecologically viable and sustainable techniques and giving them every possible advantage to grow in a stable, Christ-centred environment thereby empowering them to be the leaders of tomorrow.

 

To reach out to children on the streets of Lagos and those who scavenge on garbage dumps through Street Outreach and provide them with emergency medical care, drug counselling, non-formal education, and friendship.

 

To reunite the children with their parents, families, relatives and well-wishers where possible.

 

Thank you for your interest in our work
