CHARITY

The act of charity has been a long time practice where people voluntarily provide basic necessities such as food, water, clothing, healthcare and shelter to the needy.

There are a lot of people in the world who have demonstrated charity. An example is Mother Teresa of Calcutta, India, a Roman Catholic nun who founded the only Catholic religious order still growing in membership, the Missionaries of Charity.

By the age of 12 she felt she had a calling to help the poor. This calling took sharper focus through her teenage years, when she was especially inspired by reports of work being done in India by Yugoslav Jesuit missionaries serving in Bengal.

The Missionaries of Charity worked with lepers and slowly expanded their educational work, at one point running nine elementary schools in Calcutta. They also opened a home for orphans and abandoned children. Their focus was the poorest of the poor: orphans, the dying, and those ostracized by diseases such as leprosy.

Feeding and Nurturing Minds Int’l Foundation draws inspiration from Mother Theresa by bringing a unique vision to the world to help eliminate hunger in vulnerable homes and build a healthy world with healthy people.

We have rendered our charity services to some communities in Edo state.

CHILDREN

Children are beautiful gifts from God, the creator of all man. In 1959, the UN General Assembly adopted the Declaration of the Rights of the Child, which defines children’s rights to protection, education, health care, shelter, and good nutrition. All children should be treated equally with love irrespective of their background, race and gender.

Our Foundation’s primary focus is centred on children’s nutrition especially for the needy.We are geared towards fighting hunger for children whose parents and communities are incapable of providing nutritious foods.

ORPHANS

UNICEF and global partners define an orphan as a child under 18 years of age who has lost one or both parents to any cause of death.

Helping the orphans is one of the goals of Feeding and Nurturing Minds Int’l Foundation.

Elderly

The Elderly are not also left behind in our quest to render charity services. We aim to empower aged persons and provide basic needs for them to cater their families.

TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES

Our training programmes are mainly on skills empowerment and counselling sessions for families.
