Arrows of God Orphanage

The Arrows of God Orphanage was set up in 1998 and cares for children from of all ages. There are roughly 200 children at the orphanage today; all in some form of education. The Orphanage was established to help reduce poverty, suffering and distress afflicted upon children as a result of abandonment, death or lack of parental care. It is a home where these children are accepted and cared for with love, thereby changing their destinies from hopelessness to one of promise.

Reception for the unveiling of the new kitchen

Today on the 12th of July the new kitchen which has been under construction for the past two weeks was unveiled by Chevron & NNPC who funded the project. They also repainted most of the buildings in the orphanage, redid the toilets, provided new furnishings throughout the orphanage including sofas and curtains and have suggested that they might provide internet access in the near future.

Below are a collection of photos from today's celebrations.
