Care, advocacy and belonging for every child
From Ijora-Badia to the national stage, our programs pair hands-on support with lasting change for children with special needs and the families who love them.
Why we care
Changing how communities see disability
Community outreaches, radio and social media campaigns, and policy lobbying that challenge stigma and amplify underrepresented voices across Nigeria.
Training the people children rely on
We train educators, community case workers and health professionals so the adults around a child with special needs know how to help them flourish.
Bringing care within reach
Partnerships with healthcare providers and regular health camps take specialised services into the disadvantaged communities that need them most.
19 households and counting in Ijora-Badia
In Lagos' largest informal settlement, we support families of persons with disabilities with basic health services, community support networks and livelihood practices.
From Lagos to the United Nations
Purple Dew was invited to ZeroCon2025 on Disability and Employment at the UN Office in Vienna, carrying the voices of Nigerian children to the world stage.
Together, we can do more.
Somewhere in Nigeria today, a child with special needs is waiting to be seen, heard and given a chance. Your support brings care, education and belonging within their reach. Together, we can do more than hope.
