Connect | Educate | Empower
Training and empowering Persons Of Concern (POCs – Asylum Seekers, Refugees, and IDPs) has always been a way out for us. We rent lands, or buy the lands off from the owners, we give it to our trained POCs. We further give them all what it takes to make the land productive. The proceeds from the land are their personal properties. They keep 100% of the proceeds.
From time to time, our team do a follow up to make sure that the POCs are on track.
Connect | Educate | Empower
Training the boy and girl child, even the parents and nonparents has been a huge way out for POCs.
We organize different training skills and urge them to participate. Certifications are been issued to the successful candidates with seed capital to startup. This helps them to be financially free and morally free. This has proven to be very effective.
From time to time, our team do a follow up to make sure that the POCs are on track.
Connect | Educate | Empower
POCs that are already loaded with skills, undergo an empowerment process. We help them to acquire the neccessary documentations for their businesses so as to protect their investments. We equally empower them with seed capital and equally monitor them grow to success. We stand in the gap for them and do every follow up. Parents empowerment has been a goal.
