<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Having grown up in community
where absolute poverty is seen as normal in a slum area seeing how poverty has
affected so many people in our community from progressing in life, seeing so
many intelligent young people drop out of school and driven to prostitution,
drug addiction, theft and robbery etc due to lack of financial support to
attain education and lead appealing lives, Having seen how single women,
widowed women and even the married women! Struggle to make ends meet for their
families! Seeing, hearing and listening to unbelievably live life stories of
how very young fragile and vulnerable girls are sent off to become house maids
at the expense of their <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">sexual security!</b>,
seeing how many girls are lured from villages to the city to look for jobs only
to end up as helpless defenseless exploited prostitutes at the tender ages of
13!! The ugly stories of children being abused, used and exploited lead to the
birth of Comfort Africa.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Comfort Africa, was
formed to help curb the challenge of dropping out of school due to absolute
poverty and parental/guardian negligience. The organization identifies young
people and children at the range of dropping out of school or who have dropped
out of school, encourages young people to use their natural skills and easy to
do hand economic activities to enable them raise funds to support them in
school. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

crafts, paper beads, envelopes, books, African fabric designed bags etc for
sale and the proceeds enable the children and young people attain education and
also fend for themselves other than engaging in prostitution and being law
breakers as a result of being idle and disorderly.</span></div>
