Providing scholastic materials

As necessities for learning, the program also provides school materials such scholastic materials such as books, pens and uniforms. We mobilize money from  friends in Germany to cater for children’s fees but also some other education needs. Those who required special needs such as mattresses, we provided them. We also provided extra support. There are students who are renting but they do not have money. Some of them come to us when they have failed to get rent. Lucky ones would get uniforms and examination fees in addition to school fees. It is sometimes difficult to stick to your operational terms and principles when supporting needy children. Therefore, we find ourselves catering for other things we had not planned for. There are so many extra things that we have to attend to on an individual basis. Most of these children live in child headed families and majority live with needy guardians. Most of these kids are in primary and secondary levels, a sensitive stage that a child brain picks well in class. When children go to school, the community is saved of thugs and thieves, majority of pick pockets in city centers are as a result of lack of scholastic materials and school fee
