Deworming Drive for Lagos Slum Children

By Ugbede-Ojo Dominic Kadiri | Project Leader

Dear friend,

We’re thankful for the donations received so far. Even though the amount isn’t enough to start yet, it has given us hope that people care about children living in hard-to-reach riverine slums around Lagos. Every contribution is a reminder that their lives matter too.

In these communities, most children walk barefoot, play near contaminated water, and eat without proper hygiene because clean water is scarce. Many suffer from stomach pain, anemia, and poor growth caused by worm infections, yet their parents can’t afford medicine or regular check-ups.

This project aims to provide deworming tablets and basic hygiene education to help reduce sickness and improve the children’s health. We already know the schools and communities that will be part of the first phase once funds are ready.

Your continued support will help us reach these children quickly, giving them relief and a fairer chance to grow healthy and strong.

With gratitude,
Ugbede Ojo Dominic Kadiri
Project Leader
