Help 100 physically challenged in S/East Nigeria

In the words of William James, "The deepest craving of Human nature is the need to be appreciated". We are incredibly grateful for your kindness, generosity, and expression of solidarity to our project, "TOUCH 350 LIVES OF PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED IN LAGOS (54331)".

In the past three months of our last project report, we have received additional donation of $18.30 through GlobalGiving, in continuation of our humanitarian services.

Besides, we have not made any Significant progress in realizing some of our project goals so far. As an organization, we planned of training some disabled and vulnerable people in vocational skills. The negotiation has been made for their training in vocational skills and many of them who are physically challenged have shown interest in different skills to learn. We are incapacitated at the moment.

The major challenges we face in our project management is occasioned by poor funding, inadequate equipment to execute the projects, absence of technical expertise, economic and political instability, physical environment that is inaccessible or hard to navigate. Lack of assistive tools or technologies to help them be effective. Negative attitudes within the work environment. All these contribute to delaying our performance in our humanitarian services.

Physically challenged people are large minority groups, starved of services and mostly ignored by society, live in isolation, segregation, poverty, charity and even pity. These include people with blindness, low vision, leprosy-cured, hearing impairment, loco motor disability, mental retardation and mental illness. We are in dare need of help to support them and put smiles in their faces.

Once again, thank you for your generous donation to "TOUCH 350 LIVES OF PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED IN LAGOS (54331)" that supported these efforts.

As the crises rages on, insecurity, uncertainty, and humanitarian needs abound. We are committed to providing humanitarian and long-term support to the physically challenged people who are in need of help.
