About Us
BRIEF HISTORY
It was a passion and a burden for the less privileged children at the Orphanage that spurred the heart of our pioneering director and when he shared with a few friends, they were motivated and it was decided that all major religious festivities and national holidays would be used to do some special for these kids and it was christened Beulah Project. This was sometime in 2004 and officially inaugurated on October 1st 2004.
By 2005, we included Children's Parties in our activities as a means of recreational development; we organized children's parties for orphans and vulnerable children and for the general children population such as Easter Children Cantata, Sallah Children Party, Christmas Children Carnival, Independence Day Celebration and May Children Day which were held in any open space even Hotels. As that year runs to an end, there became an obvious need for an open space to use as a playground and by April 2006, we acquired plots of land that we presently called land Goshen Development Centre to serve as an administrative nerve and for recreational development purposes. Not too long after, we started organizing Scrabbles and Table Tennis Championship for Secondary School Students.
At the turn of 2006, our vision was enlarged to reach out to Orphans and Vulnerable Children and women in rural communities. To maximize this, there was a name change as this was also a pre-requisite for Corporate Affairs Commission registration. By Sept 27th 2007, we were officially registered as Life Helpers Initiative as a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization with a focus on Education, Health, Social and Community development.
Life Helpers Initiative recognises the need to leverage knowledge, capacity and resources in order to achieve its objectives as an organisation, develop the capacity of its workforce and also bring the maximal impact to the various communities of interest. LHI has been privileged to work with a few government ministries and agencies, and international and national partners over the years.
