OCSI is a grassroots Angolan NGO that focuses its efforts on improving the quality of life for abandoned and orphaned children, underprivileged young adults and the elderly by providing them with basic education and vocational skills that will permit their respective reintegration into Angolan society.
This reintegration program has been ongoing for the last five years, benefiting 25 communities in the province of Luanda. The continuation of the program looks to provide the same opportunities to 10 additional communities, more specifically, this will target young girls who are forced to sell in local markets for the livelihood of their respective families.
The program will provide these girls with state-equivalent elementary school education, while at the same time assisting them and their families in acquiring the necessary documentation that will facilitate their integration into state schools (ie, Birth certificate, identity cards, child registration card).
We can NOT do this alone! We ask you to help us fulfill our dreams in creating a better future for the children in Angola. To Make a Child Happy is to Build a New Angola!
