D'NICE INVESTMENTS FUND RAISER SITE

A home for poor orphaned and destitute children. Children must be given freedom to enjoy their rights to be children.

Serving needy children in a hostile environment

The home therefore endeavours to provide basic needs including:-

Street children will most likely be suffering from mental fear and unceasing worries. We have a duty to assist them to recover.

St. Nicholas Community also works for the right of the child to:

	Freely express their opinions

Children need to be encouraged so that they can grow into responsible citizens.
