وَٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا۟ بِهِۦ شَيْـًۭٔا وَبِٱلْوَٰلِدَيْنِ إِحْسَـٰنًۭا وَبِذِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ وَٱلْيَتَـٰمَىٰ وَٱلْمَسَـٰكِينِ وَٱلْجَارِ ذِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ وَٱلْجَارِ ٱلْجُنُبِ وَٱلصَّاحِبِ بِٱلْجَنۢبِ وَٱبْنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَمَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَـٰنُكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخْتَالًۭا فَخُورًۭا ٣٦
“Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and be good to parents, relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the distant neighbor, the companion at your side, the traveler, and those whom your right hands possess. Indeed, Allah does not like those who are self-deluding and boastful.”
📖 (Surah An-Nisa 4:36)
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “I and the caretaker of an orphan will be like this in Paradise”, then he gestured with his index and middle fingers, slightly separating them. (Narrated by Imam Al-Bukhari).
وَيُطْعِمُونَ ٱلطَّعَامَ عَلَىٰ حُبِّهِۦ مِسْكِينًۭا وَيَتِيمًۭا وَأَسِيرًا ٨ إِنَّمَا نُطْعِمُكُمْ لِوَجْهِ ٱللَّهِ لَا نُرِيدُ مِنكُمْ” جَزَآءًۭ وَلَا شُكُورًۭا”
“And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive, [saying], ‘We feed you only for the countenance of Allah. We wish not from you reward or gratitude.'”
📖 (Surah Al-Insan 76:8-9)
Our Vision
To nurture and enhance the lives of Orphans and Vulnerable Children to become Productive Citizens.
Our mission
To provide a loving haven for orphans and vulnerable children, to enhance their learning, faith and positive character.
Our achievemnets
Over the years, we have made remarkable strides in providing a nurturing environment for orphaned and vulnerable children. One of our major milestones was the completion of our first Dream Home, now housing 39 children. Additionally, we acquired a property adjacent to our home to establish a separate accommodation for boys, ensuring a more comfortable and structured living arrangement. Our commitment to governance and accountability led to a constitutional review and the successful hosting of our Annual General Meeting (AGM).
Education remains at the heart of our mission, with almost all our children enrolled in different private schools, except for those not yet of school age. A particularly inspiring success story is that of Precious, a child with special needs, who, through rehabilitation and love, was able to walk at age five. Our efforts in fostering and adoption have also been significant, with 10 children placed in loving homes, 9 reunited with their families, and the heartbreaking loss of 2 children. To further strengthen our impact, we have trained our members on fostering and adoption, equipping them with the necessary skills to support this cause.
To guide our work effectively, we developed a strategy map and held an annual leadership retreat, hosted by various homes. These retreats serve as crucial platforms for refining strategies and planning yearly activities. Our financial transparency has also been a priority, with audited accounts from 2015 to 2024, conducted by Ibrahim Abdullahi & Co Chartered Accountants.
In expanding our reach, we established a branch in Kaduna in 2018, followed by a Lagos branch in Omale in 2020. Our commitment to education and innovation led to the launch of Brains and Minds Academy in Lifecamp, Abuja, in 2020, further strengthening our ability to provide quality education. Most recently, we inaugurated the Halal Youth Hub and Innovation Centre in Lugbe, Abuja, creating a space for young minds to learn, grow, and innovate.
