Makoko Community Support Initiative

Supporting Education & Feeding Families in Lagos

Why Makoko?

Makoko faces ongoing structural challenges that affect family stability and child development. Food insecurity and disrupted schooling continue to limit opportunities for many children.

Without consistent support, families struggle to meet essential needs, and children risk falling behind in health and education.

This programme exists to provide coordinated, long-term intervention where it is most needed.

Food Insecurity

Children lack reliable access to nutritious meals necessary for healthy growth and learning.

Many families in Makoko struggle to provide consistent daily meals.
Irregular income and limited access to resources mean children often go to school hungry — affecting their concentration, health, and emotional wellbeing.

Our feeding intervention provides structured meal support to improve nutrition, restore dignity, and strengthen family stability.

Interrupted Schooling

Many children face barriers that prevent consistent attendance and safe learning environments.

Financial hardship forces many children to miss school due to unpaid fees, lack of uniforms, or essential supplies.

We work to remove these barriers by supporting access to education through materials, structured assistance, and community engagement — ensuring children can remain in safe learning environments.

Protecting Futures. Restoring Stability.

Every contribution strengthens a household, improves a child’s wellbeing, and builds long-term community resilience.
