Our strategy in child development is built on the conviction that a child needs to be looked at as a whole person whose spiritual, Physical, Socio-emotional and Cognitive needs have to be addressed for concrete development to occur. Our intervention which as seen at least 4 children nurtured from early childhood to sponsorship for University education include; provision of healthcare, educational support, life and livelihood skill training for children, Income Generating support for Parents/caregivers, positive parenting skill training for parents/caregivers, HIV/AIDS home management care, Child Advocacy, spiritual nurturing, and nutrition.

  1.    Child Development through Sponsorship Program (CDSP)

We are committed to sharing the love of God with the community with a high degree of accountability and transparency and to ensure that our limited resources have the widest reach and make a real and positive difference to the lives of the children we serve.
