In May 2026 we ran a Children’s Day outreach at Purity Rose Care Orphanage and Special Needs Centre in Abuja, working directly with children including children with additional needs.
No photographs
There are no images with this post and there will not be. We do not photograph children for fundraising, at any time. Documentation of our work with children is held internally with the permission of the home, and it is not used in public appeals.
If you are a donor and you want to know what your giving achieved with children, we will tell you in writing rather than in photographs.
What these homes actually need
Orphanages and care centres across the FCT run chronically short. Provisions run out before the month does. Children with additional needs require support the homes caring for them often cannot fund, and specialist attention is expensive and scarce.
These homes are visited in December and forgotten in February. Our aim is the opposite: fewer homes, visited more often, with a relationship rather than an annual appearance.
The full activity report is still in progress, with photo identifications pending. This entry will be completed when it is.
