Saving Education

Education remains a top priority for Save Our Needy. Poverty can be greatly reduced by supporting education initiatives for disadvantaged children.

A young single mother of 4 boys, victim of domestic violence and abuse recently benefited from Save Our Needy support. Since she took courage to leave her husband several years ago due to constant abuse and lack of care for her and her children, life has not been easy for Nkechi as she shoulders all the responsibilities at home. She lives in a one-room apartment in a very disadvantaged community in Lagos State. Save Our Needy gave her a generous donation of food items, clothing for herself and her children, toiletries as well as toys when the SON team visited.

Most importantly, her son, Ifeatu Chinerem, who lost a whole school year due to financial difficulties is now able to go back to school as Save Our Needy provided his school fees.
