Remi Ayeleso Motherless Baby and Disability Home: A Beacon of Hope

The Remi Ayeleso Motherless Baby and Disability Home stands as a cornerstone of the Remi Ayeleso Empowerment Initiative for People with Special Needs. This compassionate facility is dedicated to providing shelter, care, and empowerment to abandoned and orphaned children living with disabilities, addressing a critical gap in Nigeria’s social support system.​

In Nigeria, children with disabilities face significant challenges, particularly in accessing education. According to Save the Children International, approximately 95.5% of children with disabilities in Nigeria are out of school, largely due to discrimination, inadequate infrastructure, and a lack of inclusive policies. In the Federal Capital Territory alone, over 260,000 children with disabilities are not receiving basic education. ​

The Remi Ayeleso Empowerment Initiative aims to combat these disparities by offering not just shelter but also access to inclusive education, healthcare, and vocational training. By fostering a nurturing environment, the initiative empowers children with disabilities to lead dignified and fulfilling lives, challenging societal stigmas and promoting inclusivity.​

Through its unwavering commitment, the Remi Ayeleso Motherless Baby and Disability Home exemplifies how targeted support and advocacy can transform the lives of vulnerable children, paving the way for a more inclusive and equitable society.
