Born from a simple truth.
When mothers and children in Lagos fall through the cracks, somebody has to be there. We started with a small circle of trustees, a phone the police could call, and a promise to show up. Today, thanks to people who keep believing in this work, we connect families with crisis care, keep children in school, and walk with neighbours through their hardest seasons.
The programmes your support pays for.
These are the things people make possible when they give. Each one has clear costs and is delivered by people who live and work in the same communities we serve.
Ease Meal
Hot meals shared at outreaches – feeding anywhere from 50 to 400 people in a single afternoon, depending on what donors make possible.
Monthly Food Boxes
Steady food support delivered each month to families of three or five, so the cupboards aren't bare while they get back on their feet.
Sponsor a Child
Be matched to a specific child and walk with them month by month – covering essentials, food, and the small things that mean a lot.
Ease the Burden
Our annual school visit, bringing uniforms and basic amenities to children in government schools who would otherwise go without.
Three things we show up for, every time.
This is the work underneath the name EASE – the same care, with every family, every call.
- when nobody is asking
We find the people nobody is looking for.
So many people in crisis don't realise help is even possible, and won't go looking for it. When a neighbour notices something is wrong, or someone in the community thinks to call, we're grateful for that call – and we go.
- when school is slipping
We keep children in school.
When a family is struggling, school is usually the first thing to slip. Fees fall behind. Uniform wears thin. We cover those costs directly so a child doesn't lose their place while their parents find their feet. £35 covers one child's full term, including uniform, books, and fees.
- after the first week
We stay past the first crisis.
Getting through one hard week isn't the same as getting steady. We stay with families through skills training, income programmes, and longer-term support. We don't drop a food parcel and disappear – the hope is always that they need us a little less over time.
Help us reach the next family.
Every gift, large or small, goes straight to a real family in Lagos. You can see the exact costs and ways to give on our donate page – and we'll always send you the name of the family your support helped reach.
