Orphanages in these regions provide shelter, care, and support for children who have lost their parents or have been abandoned, offering them a semblance of home and hope. The act of donating items to these orphanages not only provides much-needed supplies but also spreads joy and compassion to those who need it most.
The decision to donate items to orphanages stems from a sense of communal responsibility and empathy towards the less fortunate. As More H.O.P.E. Community Care is creating a community of its own and helping orphans within our care, we know that many orphanages in Lagos and Ogun States operate with limited resources, relying heavily on donations to sustain the daily needs of the children under their care. By donating essential items such as clothing, food, educational supplies, and hygiene products, individuals and organizations can directly impact the lives of these children, contributing to their well-being and development.
We will reach out to the selected orphanages via phone and email to inquire about their current needs and donation guidelines. We will make sure to establish communication to coordinate the donation process effectively. Once the items have been we will sort them according to category (e.g., clothing, food, toiletries) and ensure they are clean, usable, and in good condition. Then we will package the items securely for transportation to the orphanages. We will coordinate with the orphanage staff to schedule a convenient time for delivery, or we will drop the item off ourselves depending on location of each orphanage. We will ensure that the items reach their intended recipients.
We are hoping that beyond material provisions, donations uplift the spirits of orphaned children, instilling a sense of belonging, love, and hope for a brighter future. We will make sure to share on our photos page once our event has taken place. We are open to volunteers! Please specify when you send in your volunteer form.
