Bring hope to forgotten conflicts
When my village was attacked, the houses were burned to the ground. I remember that I was always running from one place to the next. I could not attend school. I did not know how to read or write. Now, I have peace. I can read and write. When I grow older, I want to be a nurse and help people.
Away from the headlines
Surging violence
Inter-communal violence is escalating in Central Nigeria. More than 20,000 people have been killed, with countless others suffering life-changing injuries.
Mass displacement
Millions are displaced by insecurity and fear. They suffer from restricted access to food, water, sanitation, shelter, health, income, protection and education.
Minimal international response
Despite the scale and nature of the violence, it rarely hits our headlines. The crisis remains out of sight of the world’s media.
I have visited over 100 villages in Central Nigeria. I can say categorically that none of these villages have received security or humanitarian assistance from the Nigerian Government or elsewhere.
Your impact
Hope in forgotten conflicts
When it is too dangerous for students to travel to school, you help us bring education to the children. Fully-resourced vehicles are deployed to remote villages in Plateau State and Southern Kaduna.
Reaching the furthest first
When it is impossible for victims to visit a hospital, you help us bring healthcare to the patients. Local volunteers are trained to treat burns, bullet and machete wounds.

We have brought Muslims and Christians together in an unprecedented way. We eat together and visit one another in the community. It has eroded most of the animosity between us.
