OFFER HOPE

Nigeria ranked 1st with 25 million homeless people as of 2023. This accounts for roughly 13 percent of the nation’s overall population. The issue is particularly egregious in the capital of Lagos, where 70 percent reside in “informal settlements.” Many people have lost almost everything in raids carried out on their communities without consultation, adequate notice, compensation, or offers of alternative housing.

More H.O.P.E. Community Care actively reaches out to the homeless population, providing support and assistance through various initiatives. The includes distributing essential items, organizing community events, and connecting individuals with resources to help them improve their circumstances. We hope that by addressing the immediate needs of homeless, the organization will offer hope and support during times, ultimately working towards reducing homelessness in the community.

Homelessness is an unfortunate reality for many Nigerians. While many consider that Nigeria’s population will double by 2050, it is imperative to solve the homelessness issue now. Several organizations have already made strides to combat the problem.

If awareness continues to spread, lives should improve and change.
