At Ijamido Children’s Home — known as “The Home of Succor” — we are committed to providing a safe, loving family environment for over 100 orphans, abandoned, motherless, and vulnerable children in Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria. Founded in 1958 by the late Chief (Mrs.) Irene V. Willoughby, our non-adoptive home raises these precious children from infancy to adulthood, giving them the shared surname “Willoughby” as a symbol of lifelong belonging and hope.

Many of our children arrive with fragile health, often suffering from the effects of abandonment, malnutrition, or lack of early medical intervention. Access to quality healthcare is vital for their growth and well-being. We rely entirely on donations to cover essential medical needs, including:

• Routine health check-ups and vaccinations
• Medications and treatments for common childhood illnesses
• Emergency medical care
• Nutritional support to strengthen their immune systems

Without consistent medical support, these innocent children face unnecessary health risks that could hinder their bright futures.

Your generous donation will make a direct and lasting difference:

• ₦10,000 (approx. $6) provides basic medications for one child for a month
• ₦50,000 (approx. $30) funds comprehensive check-ups and treatment for several children
• ₦200,000 (approx. $120) covers emergency care or ongoing treatment for a child in need

Every contribution, no matter the size, brings healing, hope, and health to our children.
