Challenge

Many elderly people in Nigeria are homeless or neglected by their families. They face hunger, poor nutrition, illness, and psychological stress. Some are forced to beg or live in unsafe public spaces. Lack of timely food threatens their health, dignity, and life expectancy. Without support, elders remain vulnerable and socially isolated.

Solution

The project provides daily nutritious meals, including vegetables, rice, protein, and dairy, to 30 elderly individuals. Meals are served in safe locations, reducing dependency on begging or family neglect. Elders gain confidence, improved health, and dignity. Regular feeding ensures consistent nutrition and reduces the risk of illness or malnutrition.

Long-Term Impact

Regular meals improve health, nutrition, and psychological wellbeing for elders. They regain confidence, independence, and dignity. Hunger and malnutrition are reduced, and community attitudes toward caring for older people improve. Sustained support fosters respect for elders, decreases human rights violations, and enhances their quality of life.
