- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Volunteers will assist children to develop their cognitive abilities through creative methods using constructive materials, paints, clay and drawing. This is a great program for creative volunteers as they will have the opportunity to design and implement recreational and educational activities for the children. We encourage volunteers to use their skills and interests to develop fun things for the children to do such as music and dance, arts and crafts, etc.
Though there is a curriculum to follow, volunteers are allow to also teach any creative subject or activity that will be helpful that they know.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to connect person and group with the heart to give back to society to the very people, communities and projects that needs their support where volunteers are work directly with the people to change lives whilst the volunteers also see the results of their love, resources and commitment.
Description
We are a grassroot organization that works directly with the very people whose lives needs to be impacted. We work directly with orphans in orphanage homes and schools, single mothers, rural villages with no proper health services, under resource educational centers and rural communities with much focus on girls and teenage mothers. Through our volunteer and internship placement we have been able to enroll some orphan girls in the tertiary and some other girls in the senior high school whilst we also provide feeding support for others.
Our focus as an organization for 2019 and beyond is to help reduce girls absenteeism during that time of the month due to the lack of sanitary towels and other proper hygienic materials. The recent UNICEF report shows that girls from difficult backgrounds like orphans, rural girls etc miss 5days of school every month because they can't afford sanitary towels.
As an organization we have taken it upon our self to help fight this by providing sanitary towels every quarter to selected orphanage homes, schools and rural communities to keep girls in school and build up their confidence through support from our volunteer and internship program. Through this initiative we are seeing progress in the academic performance of most of our selected girls.
As we give volunteers a conducive atmosphere to volunteer we are also able to gather some funds from volunteer placement to help us achieve our goal.
