Hi There,   Welcome to OIA Gives   The aim of this charity is to provide small yearly scholarships to less than fortunate children and youths in the hope to eradicate not just poverty, but child poverty. Our goal is to help more African women, children and youth, see possibilities beyond what they experience every day. We work to give them opportunities to make a difference in their lives and communities and through education and other initiatives, we envision each woman, child and youth having access to the greater world and the opportunity to participate in it. Here are some poverty facts for you   I bet you didn’t know a projection done by World bank estimates that by 2030 the emerging face of poverty is the face of an African child   It showed in 2030, the poverty rate will range from 14 – 26% in sub-saharan African.   If you’re like me and you are wondering what region that is, it is the African countries south of the Saharan dessert.   This poverty rate means one in five sub Saharan Africans living on less than $1.90   In 2017, the population of sub – Saharan Africa was roughly 1.0 billion people, so 200 million people living on less than $1.90   IF WE HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THIS THEN WE SHOULD.

HERE WE ARE! At uMthombo Street Children 4 Buxton Gardens, uMbilo Durban, 4001 South Africa Who are we? uMthombo Street Children is a South African Section 21 Company and Non-Profit organisation committed to providing alternatives for street Children and a way out out the streets. We collaborated with uMthombo Street Children to help raise funds for less than fortunate youths. We work in the EThekwini Metro in KwaZulu Natal, with a population of 3.5 million people & an unemployment rate of 30.2%. Approx 20% of its population are children & youth aged between 14 and 25. Among these, the unemployment rate is approx 39%. Now this creates fertile ground for teenage hopelessness & a lack of future-orientation, and the availability of cheap drugs on the streets creates a tempting escape route to apparent ‘freedom’. " There are no quick fix solutions but children’s lives can be transformed". OIA Gives™ is a non-profit movement dedicated to helping African women, children and youths see possibilities beyond what they experience every day. OIA Gives™ exists to encourage, inform, inspire, and give African women, children and youth the opportunity to make a difference in their lives and communities. Through education and other initiatives we envision each African woman, child and youth having access to the greater world and the opportunity to participate in it.
