ALL ABOUT SAVE OUR NEEDY


WHAT DOES SAVE OUR NEEDY ( S.O.N) REPRESENT?
S.O.N is a registered international not-for-profit organization founded in the Republic of Benin in 2010. We currently have offices in Cotonou, Republic of Benin and Lagos, Nigeria, both West African countries. S.O.N was born mostly out of the need to help the less privileged attain financial independence by realizing their potential thereby achieving their dreams.

HOW DOES S.O.N INFLUENCE LIVES?
We have been able to touch the lives of thousands of less privileged men, women and children through mainly charity works, empowerment programs and training given to them. We hope to do a lot more in the future with the resources that will be available to us.

OUR MISSION
Our mission is to give a better life and future to the less privileged in the society.

OUR VISION
Our vision is to become a global organization encouraging the less privileged overcome poverty by empowering and availing them of opportunities to attain sustainable human development.
Save Our Needy operates from two countries in West Africa, today. Our five-year plan is to be found in more countries around the world working with the youth and women, bringing hope and succor to the less privileged.

S.O.N OBJECTIVES
Our main objectives are:
·         Poverty alleviation
·         Economic empowerment of youth and women through empowerment programs and relevant training to attain sustainable development
·         Advocating for the respect of human rights by fighting against human trafficking


OUR TARGET
Our focus is mainly on the youth, women and children. We believe that women and children are the most vulnerable groups in the society and they are easily affected by poverty. That is why most of our programs are geared towards catering for women and children. The youth are at a very vulnerable stage in their lives and this group should also not be ignored. Programs such as S.O.N AIDS awareness programs are geared towards helping the youth manage their sexuality and become responsible individuals.

OUR TEAM
We have dedicated, focused and accountable who are experts in their respective fields. We also work with volunteers: young, dynamic, dedicated, determined and capable individuals who help us carry out our projects. The volunteers get welfare packages during projects.

BOARD MEMBERS
Our board members are educated, accountable, reliable and well- respected people in the society.

OUR APPROACH
We reach out to the less privileged in the society through donations, awareness programs, organizing periodic training, capacity-building workshops and seminars aimed at encouraging women and young people attain financial independence and develop leadership skills.


WHO WE HOPE TO PARTNER WITH
We hope to partner with individuals, private companies, government agencies, international agencies and organizations. S.O.N welcomes all kinds of partners and donors because without partnerships, non-profit organizations are limited. We believe partnerships go a long way in helping accomplish set goals. Partners are always useful and they always bring the much-needed added value to projects.

  •  Education
  •  Entrepreneurship
  •  Health
  • The respect of human rights
