Overview

Mission

To empower Children and Adolescents to Educational Excellence, Develop lasting Vocational Skills and develop good ethics from an early age

What it reported doing in 2025

Successfully completed five clean water projects across multiple states in Nigeria, a significant achievement that underscores our commitment to improving the quality of life for communities in need. Through these initiatives, we have drilled five water wells equipped with efficient pumps, strategically located in five separate elementary schools. This not only provides students with reliable access to clean and safe drinking water but also promotes better health and hygiene practices among the children and their families. The impact of these projects extends far beyond just providing water; it fosters an environment conducive to learning and growth. Children can now focus on their education without the burden of water scarcity. Additionally, these projects have engaged local communities, creating a sense of ownership and responsibility towards maintaining these vital resources. We are proud to have met and exceeded our expectations in delivering sustainable solutions that empower communities and enhance the well-being of future generations. This accomplishment reflects our dedication to making a meaningful difference and highlights the importance of collaboration and support from all stakeholders involved. Together, we are paving the way for a healthier, brighter future for the children of Nigeria.

Operating model

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
