Visit To Voice Of Salvation Motherless Babies Home



Our visit to Voice of Salvation Motherless Babies Home in the local community of Ojo, Lagos State, opened our eyes to the plight of orphans and abandoned children in Africa, especially in Nigeria.

During this very fruitful and enriching visit, vulnerable children between the ages of 1 and 10 benefited from various items including food items, clothes, footwear, buckets, plates, toiletries and schoolbags donated by Save Our Needy. 

This visit gave us first-hand knowledge of the hardship and suffering faced by these children. Their caregiver, Mr.Onyeagu explained to us how difficult it has been to care for these children. They have pressing  financial issues: they need funds for kerosene to cook, send the children to school, buy books, get medical care for the children, repair their generating sets (to get light when power fails) and even fuel to keep their generating sets going. Please donate to a worthy cause. These children need our love and support in order to become useful citizens and responsible adults tomorrow. 


We would like to thank Mr. Andrew Akindele,( Systems Manager, State of Ohio, USA), for his generous donation to this project. Thank you very much, sir. May the good Lord reward you immensely for putting smiles on the faces of the little ones.

Our sincere gratitude also goes to Mr. Hamdi Zaghbib,(2012 President of JCI Metline, Tunisia) for his contribution to the purchase of the schoolbags.
