" I amm very a passionate when it comes to helping children have better lives and opportunities.For example orphans,street children, children with special needs or
abandoned kids.It is important for these kids to be given an opportunity to build their
potential by being provided with the right environment for physical, psychological,
emotional and spiritual growth. I believe that through networking with the right Groups
of people like the government,other NGOs and also existing children homes,more
children can have a better future.This can also be through the right
mentorship,love,care and upbringing. Inorder to have more productive people in the
society, we need to start by helping these disadvantaged children to have a chance to
build their lives in a conducive environment. My passion also include marginalized groups of people, who need to be empowered for the purpose of improving there living standards "
