HELP INFINITI CIRCLE

Organization Description: 

Help Infiniti Circle Outreach (HICO) is a faith-based non-for-profit organization that educates nurtures and supports the academic and social development of underprivileged children, by providing decent and safe learning facilities and opportunities for them to become educated and responsible citizens. WFC provides children with love, and basic life necessities such as: food, shelter, clothing, hygiene products, education, school supplies, basic health needs and eventually a state of the art educational center. Our programs started in the following order as we grow:

1)HOME SCHOOLS: HICO will integrate homeschools concept in Liberia. Homeschooling, also known as home education, is the education of children inside the home, as opposed to in the formal settings of a public or private school. A parent or tutor usually conducts home education. Many families that start out with a formal school structure at home often switch to less formal and, in their view, more effective ways of imparting education outside of school, and many prefer the term "home education" to the more prevalently used "homeschooling" This will be offered at the home we will provide for the children.

2)HICO programs will include annual summer sports competition for kids- to boost their self-confidence, reading program, radio program that features underprivileged children, Creative Arts Competition, basic leadership and marketing skills. We will provide this once a year.

3)Learning Resource Academy for Children through this academy, we will provide a safe and decent learning environment of children between the ages 2 16, where they will learn, grow, be cared for and nurtured to become good citizens. The center will consist of instructional classrooms, nursery for the babies, short nap rooms and reading and research Library, science laboratories, and dining hall. This academy will be the state of the art center referred previously.

Our beneficiaries include children from birth to 18 years of age of socially/economically disadvantaged parents, orphans and street children. We will target such children from inner cities and its surrounding. These locations were identified because; statistics shows that a large number of our targeted kids come from these environments. We hope to extend to other communities across the country as we progress.
