We are a poverty alleviation charity. We try to help out in little ways to make life more meaningful for those worst affected by socioeconomic adversity. These are images from our destitute support programme in London this Christmas.

We have been working in the UK and parts of Africa for a couple of years. This year, with the challenges created by the Covid-19 pandemic, we decided to expand our humanitarian support to reach more vulnerable people in other parts of Europe. This is a video from our charity outreach in Europe:

Many families in Africa have been badly affected by the Covid-19 lockdown. The situation is compounded by the continent’s pervasive poverty problem. Economic and Social Rights infrastructure is grossly inadequate in the majority of African nations with governments failing woefully to deliver basic socio-economic dividends to impoverished populations. Between 40-50% of Sub-Saharan Africans are living below the poverty line. The continent has about 11 per cent of the world’s population but carries almost a quarter of the global disease burden. It has below 1 per cent of global health expenditure and a meagre 3 per cent of global health workers while accounting for almost 50% of the planet’s deaths of children under five, and the highest maternal mortality rate with almost two-thirds of the global maternal deaths in a year (Nigeria accounts for most of these preventable deaths in Africa, and is second only to India globally). Less than 20 per cent of African women have access to education, and 2 in five adults in the region are illiterate.

To address these colossal challenges, Africa needs urgent sustainable economic growth which could be facilitated by international trade. However, the continent’s share of global trade was a humiliating 2.6% in 2018! This imposes serious obligations on governments and all stakeholders to work towards promoting not just the export of raw materials ( which has so far characterised Africa’s foreign trade) but manufactured goods and services from Africa to the rest of the world.

We can ALL contribute in different ways to make this happen. Our charity is committed to this vision. In the last few years, we have supported a number of small businesses in Africa. We have provided business mentoring, small handouts, and micro-credit facilities, some of which we had to write off due to the challenging conditions of the recipients concerned. We are also actively working with artisans and small businesses to facilitate the direct export of local products from the continent to the West. Though this is still at the incubation stage, we see this as a vital aspect of our work.

Today, multitudes are grappling with serious economic difficulties in our own country. We want to assist as many as we can in our own little way. Ultimately, the goal is to support thousands of underprivileged individuals and families, especially those living in extreme poverty. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, 40% of Nigerians are living below the poverty line, surviving on a little over $1 a day. This festive season, we will be starting with 50 individuals and families. We will work with each family to develop a poverty alleviation strategy. Beyond merely giving them fish, we aim to empower them with the right fishing tools so they can progressively navigate their way out of poverty.

Through our newly registered ’No Poverty Campaign’ NGO, we will be kickstarting a programme that is structured to address the challenges of families suffering from generational poverty by providing targeted quality academic assistance to deprived kids while assisting their parents materially and morally with a view to breaking cycles of poverty.

This is where you come in! If you know any destitute that you are deeply concerned about, this is your chance to help that person or family. You can help us to reach the RIGHT people by bringing them to our attention. Nominate the individual, telling us how bad their situation is, and we will take it from there. If they meet our criteria, they would be registered on our economic empowerment program to receive tailored systematic assistance for 6 months to establish a foundation for financial stability. Each of the 50 individuals nominated will also receive a little token of #10,000 as a present this festive season.

Please spread this information and help us to reach the right people. Kindly send all nominations to:

Hi Ayomilore, It is okay to nominate yourself if you fit the profile ( we will verify that later), but you need to follow the instructions regarding nomination.
Note that this is much more than the 10,000 Naira stipend, it is about the structured material and moral support beneficiaries would get for 6 months to empower them economically. Cheers

Thank you sir

I went to ministry of women affairs and poverty alleviation center to acquire catering skills, reason being that I just want to fight the poverty off in my life as I was thinking of what I could do, I just stumbled upon the location, however, along the line I dropped out due to financial issues, we were told to buy lots of things which I was able to do during the first semester.

During the second semester I dropped out because I lack the financial ability to finish the course. Please help me, I really want to get out of the rat race, I'm doing security job right now owing to the fact that I've got no where to stay

Please, I promise that I would be willing to give back to the society if help comes my way

I stay in Ebute Metta

Thanks for your response. I sent a mail to the email address you provided few days ago.....please kindly look into my predicament.

I can work for you as a cleaner or as a security man....I can do anything so as to leave my current situation.

We spent yesterday (New Year's Day) distributing FREE brand new NIKE trainers to homeless people in London, here is an image of the outreach. Would start another thread to show videos of what happened, it was a great way to start the year, contributing in LITTLE ways to make life exciting for the less fortunate.

I am just seeing this. God bless you for this gesture. Please is it too late to send an email?
