CRC expands to Manguama and Pujehun villages

The Child Rescue Centre has expanded its vision to serve children and families who live in the villages of Pujehun and Manguama.

Last month, children from these two villages were enrolled in the Child Support Program so they can begin receiving support for their education. Both underdeveloped and politically marginalized, these small villages suffer from extreme poverty, lack of services and inaccessibility.

Manguama is one of the villages served by Mercy Hospital outreach.

CRC Director Mohamed Nabieu spoke to the new vision to expand to the villages.  “We are not only to focus on our comfortable zones, but if we want to make meaningful impact, we have to be ready to reach out to the unreached, speak out for the voiceless and help the underprivileged,” he said.  

Over several days in September the CRC team visited the newly established operational areas to distribute school supplies. “The children are all set and ready for the new school year,” CRC Case Manager Victor Kanu reported. The CRC staff counseled the parents to support their children’s education by encouraging them to study and take good care of their school supplies.
