We are working to uplift underprivileged children and youth by breaking barriers to education, fostering personal growth, and creating sustainable economic opportunities so they can reach their full potential and build a better future.
There are so many school aged going children that are not enrolled in school today, yet the best way to fight poverty is by educating a child.
Our child sponsors and donors provide gifts to meet the physical, emotional, and educational needs of children in the impoverished slums where we work.
Children in slum communities are at risk. We are devoted to serving children’s needs, protecting them from harm and securing their rights.

Sheilah is a servant leader who is passionate about creating a world where every child regardless of his/her background has equal access to quality education. Growing up in desperate poverty, Sheilah had limited access to education, even though her single mother tried to find some piece of work of selling vegetables on the roadside, her monthly income couldn’t stretch enough to provide all the needs of her six poor children including paying their school fees on time. When Sheilah got a chance to step in class, she put all her effort to learning and be the best in her class and was able to get a full bursary as the best student every term which reduced on the risk of being sent back home for school fees which increased her chances of having a brighter future through education. After successfully completing high school, Sheilah decided to dedicate her time to help children struggling in their studies to catch up in math and literacy.
