The escalating cost of living is a challenge that many communities worldwide face, and Egbe, Nigeria, is no exception. Rising inflation and an economy in turmoil have made it increasingly difficult for our caregivers at C.A.R.E Africa to afford basic necessities, including food. As a result, many families in our community are struggling to provide for themselves and their children.

The Growing Challenge

Inflation in Nigeria has soared, driving up the prices of everyday essentials. Food has become prohibitively expensive, leaving many families in a state of food insecurity. Our caregivers, who play a crucial role in nurturing and supporting the children, are finding it increasingly difficult to make ends meet. This economic strain not only affects their ability to provide nutritious meals but also impacts the overall well-being of the children in our care.

Our Commitment to the Community

At C.A.R.E Africa, our mission is to improve the lives of families in the Egbe community. We understand that food security is a fundamental aspect of well-being, and we are dedicated to addressing this critical issue. To help alleviate the burden on our caregivers and ensure that our children receive the nutrition they need, we are launching a food support initiative.

Providing Food Packages

Our goal is to provide food packages for the children through their caregivers. These packages will include essential food items that can sustain a family for a considerable period, ensuring that no child goes to bed hungry. Each food package is tailored to meet the nutritional needs of growing children and support the health and strength of the entire family.
