Activity Overview
“Nigeria Wheelchair Support | Home Safe Haven Pilot Project” began with the practical needs of people facing mobility or daily-living difficulties. Visits, conversation and mobility or medical assistance supplies were used to provide non-cash, in-kind support.
During the visit, volunteers spoke with service recipients and local partners to better understand day-to-day challenges, while coordinating the handover of support materials so that assistance could reach people with genuine needs.
The project was carried out by The Home of On Hong Limited under the overseas project name “Home Safe Haven”, working with local receiving partner Rescue Helpless People Foundation on receipt and support arrangements.
Getting the Right Support to Where It Is Needed
Overseas support is not only about sending materials. It also requires understanding the limitations people face in everyday life and responding with suitable forms of assistance.
This pilot project also helped us build experience in cross-border cooperation, local receipt arrangements and on-site communication, providing a foundation for more carefully structured overseas care projects in the future.
Additional Note
The “₦100,000 NGN” wording visible in the activity photo refers to a one-off on-site support made in the name of The Home of On Hong Limited after the on-site volunteer observed the local circumstances. The relevant amount was personally borne by the volunteer and was not paid from the organisation’s funds, nor was it part of the organisation’s regular cash assistance arrangement.
