Lift Them Up children’s center, it’s core mission is to help poor children in their academic endeavors, emotional development, physical wellbeing through full time daycare. LITU’s children care center is a residential community center for children who are very poor, can’t afford all basic requirements and essential human beings requirements.This center provides early childhood education for children aged 2-6 years to prepare them for formal education.
LITU children center started with 2 children from very poor families in September 2021, very quickly we expanded to 15 children and at the moment we provide early childhood education for 40 children. We have more children on the waiting list but the facility that we are renting can only accommodate this number. We have a vision of having our own land and to build our own center, and we are working on securing funds for this effort. At the moment we have 50% to purchase the land and we are actively working on securing more funds. The children in our school are from the diverse ethnic and religious affiliation.We believe in equal access to education empowerment of marginalized community and brighter tomorrow where these children are the heroes of their own story
