Today’s children and young people face a lot of issues from birth, ranging from sexual, emotional, and physical abuse. They are being molested, starved, abandoned, maltreated, impregnated, impoverished, and denied access to education and qualitative health care. Some are presently complete orphans, single orphans. Many are vulnerable to the circumstances of their births or the environments they grow in.

Despite the challenges, we have remained committed to ensuring that we keep delivering impactful interventions in the best interest of the people we serve in communities across Nigeria so they are empowered and supported to push for a people-centered, rights-based response at all levels.

Let’s step into 2024 with renewed vigor, determined to make even greater strides toward a world where children and young people achieve their potentials. Together, you are the driving force that propels us closer to making this world a better place for us all.

Wishing you a joyous holiday season and a New Year filled with continued advocacy

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in Advance to you and your family.

Empowering Young Minds: Breaking the Cycle of Child Labour

At Kidsnteensngo, we are dedicated to providing opportunities for children in Cocoa-growing communities to access quality education and break the cycle of child labour. Through our partnership with SUCDEN Groupe Sucres & Denrees we are working to create a sustainable impact that will benefit these communities for years to come. Our holistic remediation approach focuses on: 1. Education: Providing essential school kits to children, enabling them to attend school regularly and pursue their passions because we believe that children should work on dreams and not in farms. 2. Economic Empowerment: Establishing Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs) to empower local economies and improve the livelihoods of farmers and parents. This will ensure that parents are able to sustain the education of their children thus allowing the children to learn instead of working to earn to support their parents. 3. Community Development: Engaging local businesses to provide school uniforms, injecting more resources into the community and promoting economic growth. 4. Livelihood support for Farmers: Provision of farm tools and Income Generating Activities (IGA) to boost income and ensure improvements in the standard of living Our partnership with SUCDEN Groupe Sucres & Denrees is making a tangible difference in the lives of
