Dear partners and supporters
For an orphaned child in Nigeria, having enough food to eat, decent clothes to wear, and the opportunity to attend school can mean everything. Sadly, many children continue to face hunger, poverty, and exclusion from education simply because they have lost their parents or have no one who can afford to support them.
We are grateful to have received our first donation towards our project, Food, Clothing and School for Orphans in Nigeria. Although this is an encouraging beginning, the funds received so far are not sufficient to begin providing food, clothing, school uniforms, books, and educational assistance. As a result, project activities have not yet commenced. We believe it is important to share this update openly with everyone who supports our mission.
Our immediate priority remains raising enough funds to begin assisting orphaned children who are struggling to meet their basic needs. Once sufficient funding becomes available, we intend to begin purchasing food supplies, clothing, and educational materials, while supporting children who cannot afford to attend or remain in school. We look forward to sharing photographs, stories, and details of the assistance provided when implementation begins.
To our donor, thank you for believing in these children. Your kindness has given this project its first financial support. However, many children are still waiting for the opportunity to eat a proper meal, wear decent clothes, and sit in a classroom like other children.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Zahra Yasir
