The Kairos Initiative

The charity was born out of first-hand experiences and witnessing of the chaos caused by the insurgence of Boko Haram and similar terrorist groups in North-Eastern Nigeria. We are dedicated to restoring dignity and bringing relief to the neediest of people in Northern Nigeria. Although we are registered in the UK and Nigeria, our projects will be based on the needs the UK board of trustees identify while in direct liaison with residents of the Northern region of Nigeria. For the sake of transparency and accountability, we aim to use this website to describe in detail and provide updates of the work we are doing. Objectives The prevention and relief of poverty and financial hardship in Nigeria, with the initial emphasis on areas affected by Boko-Haram, by providing or assisting in the provision of education, training, healthcare projects and all the necessary support designed to enable individuals to generate a sustainable income and be self-sufficient. For the public benefit to promote the education (including social and physical training) of people under the age of 25 years in Nigeria in such ways as the charity trustees think fit, including by: i. Awarding to such persons scholarships, maintenance allowances or grants tenable at any secondary school, university, college or institution of higher or further education. ii. Providing the means for students to participate in competitions that encourage participation in any of the arts. iii. To assist in the treatment and care of persons suffering from an illness of any description who is unable to afford their medical bills or for whom illness has had an impact on their ability to work; or in need of rehabilitation as a result of such illness, by the provision of facilities for work and recreation. Mission Addressing practical and basic needs such as Food, Health and Education. Vision To bring attention and hope to the forgotten victims of insurgency.
