Activities are on top gear to perfect and round up the training of 45 students that started in June 2009 The students will graduate in June 2011.For the first time we plan to settle them in groups not as individuals but to form them into Co operatives that can attract Micro-finance.By their locations before they were recruited they choose where to stay and work and this has led to settlement in three States in Nigeria, Lagos, Imo and Kwara States respectively. We are canvassing for Tools and Equipment for their settlement and hope to pay for a Workshop for a year for them to allow them time to hook on effectively. Some of them will be employed back into the Centre to continue the manpower boost needed to sustain the Centre.
There is no way this miracle can be done in their lives with out the kindness of benefactors who accepted to help us out. They have not only learnt skills but some of them have opened their eyes and mind to academic education. We are grateful to our benefactors and will ever remain thankful.
