Our Programmes

Our program Support Education of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC). and distribute a wealth of resources to better performance in schools. We empower girls and boys to have a voice, to claim their rights to equality, education, dignity and safety.

We teach important health lessons, helping communities to learn the facts that can save their lives through trained health facility workers, school health actors and community’s Village Health Team (VHT).

We require drilling boreholes and build water reservoirs by equipping schools with water harvesting tanks, adequate number of hand washing facilities for students, and the girls to wash their bodies during menstrual occurrences.

Through enterprising innovations on apprenticeship-based vocational skills, agriculture and business training, adolescents socialize and receive mentorship, skills and basic financial literacy that can help them to graduate from vulnerability and poverty and can have a firm basis for hope in future.

We engage diverse stakeholders in the rehabilitation of communities whose support also widen our effort in the humanitarian coordination system with the Government ministries, funders, donors, foundations and Civil Society Organisations (CSOs).

In order to create change, we strengthen human rights protection through civic engagement in the communities, and build the capacities of other Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) to support our program in their respective communities.
