“We have received valuable support from other stakeholders who have helped make this initiative possible, and we are truly grateful for their contribution.

“This effort is not about us, but about our children, many of whom come from families where no one is employed, and some are orphaned. Through this support, we aim to provide proper nutrition, uplift their spirits, and ensure they remain focused and motivated in their school work,” she said.

She further stated that, as an NPO, they plan to continue assisting children and hope to gain more support in the future, as their goal is to reach and help even more children in need.
