Inspiring Impactful Change
About Us
Our mission
Here at Project Acchieve, our mission is to provide a Therapeutic Centre to help infants and children with physical and functional limitations to learn to cope with everyday life.
We raise funds to build the centre and secure funding of operational costs for years to come.
This is a journey we started in 2005, when the Warri Branch of Nigerwives Nigeria (foreign women married to Nigerian citizens and residing in Delta State), decided to embark on providing a ‘Centre for the Disabled’ – a charity project, as their contribution to the society among which they live.
The Centre, named “PROJECT ACCHIEVE” provides daycare / therapeutic facilities, advice and counselling, among other activities, for infants and children with various disabilities.
“ACCHIEVE” is an acronym for: ‘A’-Action for; ‘C’-Children with; ‘C’-Coordination; ‘H’-Hearing; ‘I’-Intellectual; ‘E’-Expressive; ‘V’-Visual; ‘E’-Educational Disabilities.
The primary target groups of this project are infants and children with various disabilities under the age of 12.
Are you ready to join us and give a chance for children with special needs?
Ways We Help
The Focus of Our Efforts
Fundraising & Partnership opportunities
Through our fundraising initiatives and seeking out partnerships, we have the potential to make real and positive change.
We were given two plots of land measuring 1,319.477 sq. metres by a Philanthropist. So far, we have only been able to build one Block out of three. A lot of good people from within and outside Nigeria have contributed to this project so far. However we need much more funds to complete the Centre.
Broad based partnership with International Development Institutes will be sought for the Project.
Therapeutic facilities
The Centre serves as a base and secretariat for the Project ACCHIEVE where mentally, hearing or visually challenged children are assessed by a team of qualified specialists.
The Centre provides therapeutic facilities and activities.
Vocational training
Vocational training in crafts, music, clay modeling, art, reading etc will be arranged by bringing in resource persons trained in special education for the challenged children. Through such training, individual aptitudes will be identified and parents advised on the child’s vocational pursuit.
Public awareness and Outreach
Public awareness of the problems encountered by challenged children will be carried out through State Television and radio. Our outreach programs involve circulation of leaflets, activity journals, notepads, handbooks, posters, stickers and billboards which will be designed with behaviour change communication messages. Panel discussions will also be arranged on State Television. Become a part of a brighter future and join our efforts today.
Counselling
Counselling workshops and seminars will be organized at the Centre for parents/guardians of challenged children and educate them about the problems posed by the disabilities and encourage them to seek assistance for such children.
The Centre will help to set up a support group of parents/guardians of challenged children.
Where the Centre is unable to cater for a particular case, it will provide information of other places/institutions to which challenged children can be referred to. It will also offer referrals to such places where possible.
