PLEASE LET US JOIN HANDS IN DIASPORA TO DONATE TO RaDI and help our most vulnerable people and victims of terrorist back home in Nigeria 🇳🇬 Resilient Aid and Dialogue Initiative (RADi) is a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), based in Kaduna state. It birthed when internally displaced people flooded Kaduna town and it’s environs in the wake of the 2019 attacks on villages in Southern Kaduna. Thousands of people got displaced, including hundreds of widows and orphans. The men who survived but couldn’t go back to their villages, Children also, couldn’t go back to continue their education, while the widows had no means of sustaining the children they had in their new locations. RADi was created to provide succor for immediate relief, and also empower those in need. There are currently about 20,000 displaced people in Southern Kaduna. We have provided food and essentials to over 5,000 families, paid off hospital debts to desperate victims, currently have over 30 displaced children on full scholarships in various schools, and we have also empowered over 200 families.

🇳🇬Some challenges facing the Internally Displaced people (IDPs):

# There is shortage of food, medicine and clothes.

# There are no mattresses for most of the IDPs and their families. A lot of them sleep on the bare floor.

#There is need to empower families for sustainability. Thanks a trillion in advance for your support and donations! Bless up!
