Four Aspects of our Mission
Education
Healthcare
Family Support
Rehabilitation
International K12 education
One of Child Scholars’ missions is to establish learning centers in many nations of the world. In Nigeria, we are in the process of completing a school house - Veritas Scholars Academy. We hope to have enough capacity for 500 children at this school. In Kenya, we are partnering with Ngala school for the Deaf to provide education to these disenfranchised kids. We are working to establish partnerships in other countries including those in South America and Southeast Asia.
In 2020 during the pandemic we doubled our efforts providing nutritious food to many families in Ikorodu especially during the lockdowns.
Higher education scholarships
Child Scholars has funded many students in universities in Africa, the US, and UK to propel many to unleash their God given potentials.
Vocational Skills Training
- Teaching kids and young adults diverse vocational skills.
- In partnership with Bimbo Odukoya foundation, we are raising funds to renovate a home to house and cater to the needs of female victims of sexual abuse.
- The goal is to bring ICT education to disenfranchised kids.
- Helping kids and young adults develop and harness the power and the value of their voice.
Dr. Emmanuel Okenye founded Child Scholars while he was in Medical School so there had always been a component of medical missions during our international trips. The goal is to improve upstream healthcare through addressing root causes for disease. We are focusing on primary disease prevention at the community level both locally in the US through our partnership with Thundering Water, an organization based in Roseburg, OR and internationally through our mission trips.
This year we have been partnering with Nidus Aquilae and have provided funding for medications, laboratory equipments, fiber optics internet, an electronic medical record system, and are currently working to complete installation of solar panel generators this month to help with power supply at the hospital.
Offering safe spaces and comprehensive care for victims of abuse, supporting their recovery and empowering them to rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.
