THIS IS WHO WE ARE

  • We are a child rescue team comprising of men, women, friends, volunteers, partners, trainers and skilled professionals.
  • We are willing to go the extra mile to ensure that every child is happy and hopeful, and has the opportunity to receive education, access health care, meet their basic needs, and ultimately escape from the vicious cycle of poverty.
  • We are advocates for children’s rights to good health and education. We champion those rights and take the lead in ensuring those rights are fulfilled, preserved and protected.

We are championing children's rights

  • We have been entrusted with the calling and privilege to preserve, promote, defend and champion children’s rights.
  • We try to do everything we can to ensure that children receive good quality education. We are custodians of children’s education and health.

THE 4 PILLARS OF OUR WORK

  • Our assignment is rested upon four pillars or components – and these pillars at the center of all our work.
  • We believe that children are happier and more hopeful when they are healthy and in school. We also believe that they can only be healthy and stay in school if they are happy and hopeful.
  • This core belief underpines all the work we do. We make all efforts to ensure that children are happy, healthy, hopeful and in school.
