NIGERIA HAS LIVED THROUGH CHALLENGING AND TOUGH TIMES AND UNFORTUNATELY POVERTY AND HARDSHIP HITS THE POOREST FAMILIES HARDEST. IT IS HARD TO IMAGINE WHAT THE LIFE OF AN ORPHAN WILL BE IN A COUNTRY WHERE MANY FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN DON’T EVEN HAVE ACCESS TO SAFE WATER, NOURISHING FOOD, HEALTH CARE, SECURITY OF LIFE AND A DECENT LEVEL OF EDUCATION.
TODAY THERE ARE 7.3 MILLION ESTIMATED ORPHANS OUT OF THE 17.5 MILLION CHILDREN IN NIGERIA. MANY OF THESE CHILDREN TAKE TO STREET TRADING, FORCED LABOUR, WHILST THE REST ROAM THE STREETS, FACED WITH DAILY EXPLICATIONS, ABUSE, SUFFERING AND NEGLECTS FROM THEIR EXTENDED FAMILIES WHO FIND IT DIFFICULT TO LOOK AFTER THEM.
CHILDREN WHO ARE WELL NURTURED CAN LIVE WELL AND HELP CREATE BETTER SOCIETIES. INVESTING IN THE WELL BEING OF CHILDREN IS THUS INVESTING IN EVERYONE’S DEVELOPMENT, AS THEY ARE INSURANCE TO THE CONTINUITY OF GENERATIONS.
WINNIE'S CASTLE OF LOVE ORPHANAGE HOME AS STAKEHOLDERS IN THE FUTURE OF OUR CHILDREN HAS BEGAN THE CONSTRUCTUION OF A MULTI PURPOSE SUSTAINABLE HOME TO CARRY OUT AN EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT PROGRAM TARGETED AT ORPHANS AND STREET CHILDREN AGES O-16 YEARS OF AGE. WITH YOUR HELP WE CAN SAVE LIVES, BUILD FAMILIES, AND BE A CHILD'S HOPE FOR LOVE AND BELONGING IN THIS WORLD. TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
