Summary
DOHS Cares Foundation celebrated Christmas with vulnerable children at Brainy Kids Home in Lagos, donating supplies, starting a literary club, and teaching about abuse prevention.
In a heartwarming display of compassion and generosity, DOHS Cares Foundation visited Brainy Kids Home, a haven for Orphans and Vulnerable Children in the Alimosho Community in Lagos, on Saturday, December 24, 2024, to celebrate the Christmas season with them through donations of food items and toiletries. The foundation also instituted a literary club named Club Therapy, a Bibliotherapy club that uses literature to address societal ills.
The visit began with DOHS Cares Founder Ololade Ajayi, sensitising the children about sexual and gender-based violence and an interactive session before proceeding to engage them in a drama session that reinforced the importance of breaking the cycle of abuse.
DOHS Cares Foundation is known for its commitment to rescuing at-risk children from abuse situations and placing them in care homes such as Brainy Kids, where they can thrive free of hostility.
In his appreciation remarks, the Chief Executive Officer of Brainy Kids Home, Mr Adekunle Mafe, revealed that the foundation’s mission is to ensure that underprivileged children have access to quality education and shelter. He further pledged the home’s readiness to fully engage in club therapy activities, which will entail mentorship on Sustainable Development Goals and therapy through Literature.
DOHS Team members also reaffirmed their commitment to positively influencing and mentoring the children through Club Therapy, whose objective is to launch rockets of hope into mental spaces overcrowded with trauma.
