Challenge

Blind individuals in Nigeria are more vulnerable to poverty due to limited opportunities for income generation and economic participation. Job opportunities that accommodate their needs are often scarce, leading to high rates of unemployment and dependency. Mr Stanley and his family, finds it very difficult to feed properly and take good care of themselves, as they're not able to receive support from people daily and most times, the support they get is not enough to sustain them.

Solution

With the funds that would be raised through this microproject, we will support them and establish a business for them which will be managed by their caregivers, in order for them to have a good source of livelihood, through which they can continue to take good care of themselves.

Long-Term Impact

Mr Stanley and his wife will stop begging on the roadside, motor parks, markets etc., to survive and will be able to feed properly alongside their child, take good care of themselves and also continue leading a healthy life, through the business that would be established for them.
