Our #1000HelpingHands campaign takes off today! We are excited at the opportunity to make a difference together again; to educate, empower and meet the basic needs of street children where they need us the most #1000HelpingHands #LetsDoItAgain

#1000HelpingHands is how we invite you to partner with us in educating, empowering and providing care to homeless kids. Time after time, you reinforce our belief that ordinary people can make big impacts with little acts of kindness if they work together. #LetsDoItAgain

At the end of 2017 campaign, you and other good people collectively gave us a donation of N2,167,115 through #1000HelpingHands over the last one year. Although we didn’t meet our fundraising target, this is showing how important every donation is in changing lives. #LetsDoItAgain

With your donation in 2017, we supported 150 children to go to enroll or go back to school. We renovated 3 classrooms, provided chairs, tables, whiteboards & teaching aids at the Lagos Model School, Marwa which admitted a majority of the beneficiaries #LetsDoItAgain #GiveHope

Through #1000HelpingHands, your contribution provided daily meals for over 30 children at our residential learning centre at Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos. We gave more than 32,850 meals. It's amazing to see how you have inspired a difference in the lives of homeless children.

On May 26, 2018, we launched Kids Innovation Hub, our initiative to empower underrepresented children with coding and innovative skills. 134 children are currently being trained to code and we have a target to train at least 500 children by the end of 2019. #1000HelpingHands

We love to count on you. We can enroll or reintegrate 300 homeless children into school. We can continue to rehabilitate, feed, shelter & empower street kids. We invite you to be one of 1000 people giving N1000 monthly to make this happen. Support #1000HelpingHands #LetsDoItAgain
