About Us
The future we crave for today is said to be the Children. A down memory lane of ones childhood will no doubt either gives gratitude, sadness or even joyful surprises as seeing Children sometimes reminds us of our early beginnings.
In the world we live in today hunger & starvation amongst children have continued to be on the rise. The Children’s agency says that there are 2½ million starving children in Nigeria and only about 20 percent of these get help.
Being human we feel the heartache of seeing children from impoverished backgrounds as they watch others from more privileged backgrounds enjoy seasons of joy, opportunities to live an improved life & access seemingly simple privileges with no recourse to them. All they need is just a slight boost.
For this reason, we have undertaken to create memories that these vulnerable children can cherish for the rest of their lives.
OpeningHearts Children’s Foundation is a non-profit organisation established to contribute to the wholesomeness of vulnerable children in our communities in Lagos.
We create an happy atmosphere albeit one day for children between 1-12 years old biannually by providing food, drink & OTC drugs on Christmas & Easter Day through our outreach programs.
