Since 2015, NDF has collected new and next to new educational resources, school furniture, clothing and living essentials which would normally be thrown away from homes, nurseries, schools and offices. We then ship and distribute to orphanages who desperately need support. We support areas in the locality that need help, however we pay particular attention to those in West Africa. In 2019, NDF (SL) opened its first Orphanage (Interim Care Centre) in Sierra Leone, West Africa.
Our Mission
To promote the education, health and social welfare of the less privileged children both locally and in the developing world.
WHAT HAPPENS TO DONATED ITEMS?
All items are first sorted; prior to being shipped to target country; to:
Meet beneficiaries and distribute the items to the children.
Evaluate how the previous resources received by the children, have impacted their lives.
Children with additional needs require that extra support and NDF ensures that children are well cared for and their carers are equipped to do their duties to the best of their ability.
We speak to their carers to find out how each child is doing. These conversations give us an insight as to what is urgently required by the children, what progress individual children have made in school, what their medical needs are if any and address any outstanding issues.
