Who are you trying to help? What issue are you trying to address?

Hope Children’s Centre which was formally Christ Our Hope Orphanage Centre established in 1994, is a local community educational institution which offers formal and vocational/ technical education to mainly the vulnerable children and AIDS/HIV orphaned children as a result after the death of their parents. These are children between the ages of 4-17.

What is your project and how will it help?

Hope Children’s Centre among the many projects to be implemented when the funds are availed will include : Promotion of Orphans Education through Vocational/ Technical Skills Acquistion for Self Reliant Project.
This project is intedend for children to be equipped with knowledge and skills in vocational /technical education in anticipation of skills acquistion for those children who may not get a chance to join higher learning institutions. It is our goal to help these children become job creators rather than job seekers as most of them do stay with their extended family members, guardians and grand parents who may not be able to afford the institutional dues/charges.
