Objectives
Our sole objective is to be a catalyst for change in providing the least privileged orphaned children of all background opportunities, after their biological parents passing or demise, to help in minimizing the painful experience (s) these children have to go through, without their only safe guard and provider in life. Our ultimate dream is to live in a world where no orphaned children are left to care for themselves and consequently becoming statistics and forgotten, in the world filled with so much wealth and humanitarianism. Our services are aimed at orphaned children from of all ages and background, especially those at a very early developmental stage in life, making sure that they are privileged to attend pre-school, kindergarten, or other community platforms that gives them early educational foundation skills for a better future.

As honest partners in this life long undertaking, we pledge to succeed in our dream of living in a world where no orphaned children are left to fane for themselves, and becoming statistics in a world blessed with so much wealth, opportunities, love, and possibilities. We reserve the ambitions to expand our services in other territories if and when resources allow doing so.
Vision
Our vision is a world where orphaned children are provided grace and love to succeed in life without any hindrances’ that could lead them in becoming statistics, joining the forgotten among us, due to failed policies and lack of care after the demise of their biological parents.
