CHILDREN’S CHARITY PROJECT
‘’the star kids’’
INTRODUCTION
In the recent years we’ve had
so many NGO’s and related bodies involving in charity and humanitarian work
especially in the area of pregnant women
and children who are stagnated as a
result of lack of developmental care and social amenities in our society which have really gone a long way in
developing their economic and social welfare/need .
According to UNICEF, however
estimated, there are approximately 100 million children worldwide living in the
street with the numbers rapidly growing, many studies have determined that
street children are mostly often boys aged 10 to 14 and girls also have a
greater vulnerability to trafficking for commercial sexual exploitation. In
Nigeria, there are estimated over 2millions orphans in Nigeria roaming the
streets with no shelter, food and clothing.
Having known these, a
vulnerable child is one who is living in circumstances with high risk and whose
prospect for continued growth and development are seriously threatened and is a
victim of chronic poverty, armed conflict
or famine with/or social and cultural background.
Many families in Nigeria are
struggling to care for their children. Our country has inherited a legacy of
extreme inequality, gender imbalance, violence especially domestic violence,
sexual abuse and neglect.
However, Revamp’s motive is to limit/eradicate these crises (poverty,
HIV/AIDS…) which are life threatening in our society. Many abandoned children
are out there struggling for survival. Some of these children have been
abandoned by their biological mothers who cannot fend for themselves, talk more
of their babies, endangering and exposing them to threats of life. Our
strategic plan of action is to reduce and/or put an end to these problems
facing our community and society so as to put smiles on the faces of these
vulnerable kids.
WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO
REVAMP children’s charity
project is originally and uniquely founded by NATIONAL YOUTH SERVICE CORPS,
NYSC corps member.
REVAMP Children’s charity project is an
independent non-profit organization actively involved in attaining universal
access to education for underprivileged children, with a particular emphasis on
orphans of HIV/AIDS.
REVAMP is also in the process of
registering to become a non-profit organization located in Abuja, Nigeria. For

MISSION STATEMENT
This originally NYSC project as
one of the community development services, aims at helping every child to
achieve and fulfill his dream in life. The purpose is to primarily inculcate in
Nigerian youth and children the spirit of selfless service to the community and
to emphasize the spirit of oneness and brotherhood of all Nigerians,
irrespective of cultural or social background.
VISION
Having seen the challenges
faced by many orphans and vulnerable ones, Revamp is an innovative and new
project that brings about renewing the minds of the young people and children
particularly the orphanages by creating working skills, poverty alleviation,
reduction of social misdemeanors as a result of unemployment, rights to
education as well as carving an economic niche in the society and giving them
the opportunity to the rights of being good citizens of Nigeria. However,
REVAMP kids are ‘’STAR kids’’.
