Life is a Gift!
We often see gifts and miracles as the big and gigantic things we experience, like a new car, a new house or a scholarship.
We do not appreciate the seemingly little and most important gift, that create opportunities, hope, faith and life.
It's high time, we start appreciating life that is counted in the oxygen inhaled and in our lungs.
Start appreciating life and the use of it.
When the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable.
You are alive for a reason and for some one.
Find the reason and the person. don't abuse the life you are given and the opportunity to make a difference.
Find the purpose for the next oxygen you will inhale and carbon dioxide you exhale!

The Cry for Hope!
I am a deserted child of a sick widow
I am a hawker on the street
I am a cart-pusher in the market
I have been reduced to a poor, indigent child
I did not want it
I did not attract it
I did not cry for it
I did not pray for it
But I find myself in this situation of misery and grief
One i don't pray for anyone
I find it difficult to feed one good meal a day
I consult the dustbins and trash
I close my eyes to sleep
not on a bed/mat, but on an abandoned carton on the street
I watch others get educated
Speak good English
I watch them see their dreams come true
I wonder when mine will be due for consideration
I cry each day
I pray someone, somewhere, will hear, see and be felt by my cry
I cry for a meaning to LIFE
I cry for a future
I CRY FOR HOPE!

DETAILS OF FOH FOUNDATION
Flickers of Hope is divided into three departments:
1. T-GROUP: this is the Transformation Group/department that
works on the mindset of the young people, helping them to learn,
un-learn and relearn. This group is the first department the young
people come in contact with, they get to change and adjust their mind
set, understand who they are, their strengths and weaknesses.
The group members are volunteers in universities and youth corps
members who are trained by Flickers of Hope as volunteers.
2. R-GROUP:this is the Reformation Group/department that
works with special students who have peculiar cases; either they
cannot read and write at all, or they have lost confidence in
themselves and cannot move straight into the information group (formal
school).
3. I-GROUP:this is the Information Group/department in charge
of taking the students back to school.They are in charge of Career
Guidance and Counselling, locating schools and the admission process
of the students.
Since Flickers of Hope is an NGO, how does she get her resources?
We have a category of 2 flickers (givers):
1. GOLD FLICKER: is one who is connected to a child and gives
responsibly to see that particular child through school.The
background, capability and progress of the child is given in details
to this Flicker.
Then the Flicker can decide on any other thing he or she wants to do to further help the child.
2. DIAMOND FLICKER: is one who gives to the cause (educating children)
not being specific about the number of children or the particular child he wants to sponsor.
That little you have can put a smile on the face of a child out here in Nigeria!
Let's join hands together and make a difference.
From the entire crew of FOH we say, YES WE CAN!
