About Us

The InnerCity Mission for children is a faith based Non-Governmental Organisation in consultative status. It is one of the outreaches of the Chris Oyakhilome Foundation, that reaches out to indigent children living in the inner cities of the world.

Birthed in 2005, the InnerCity Mission for Children reaches out to orphaned and vulnerable children indigent children living in deprived communities and the forgotten places of our world.

Through the outreach’s sustainable and participatory interventions via its Child Development, Child care and support, Health and Nutrition, Family Strengthening, Inner City Mission for Children School and other programmes, the InnerCity Missions for Children helps these destitute children in families, households, innercity community schools and orphanages and related institutions who have become deprived, vulnerable and excluded by poverty.

The InnerCity Mission UK is registered as a Community Interest Company (CIC) and our primary aim is to benefit the community and focus on the need of children and families, providing innovative solutions to the issue of poverty in areas such as Education, Food insecurity, Child Rights and Protection, Humanitarian Crisis, shelter among others.

“Remember, every child is your child! Help children, don’t ignore children. They are our extension; they are our future. No matter how dirty or untouchable they are, think again, one day you were just that small, but you were fortunate to have someone help you, many of these are fortunate to have us if we would only open our hearts, our minds, our eyes and ignore them no more. We need to help give them a home, we need to help educate them, we need to help cloth them. As small as they are, as needy as they are, as frustrated as they are, they have dreams. We can help make those dreams come true!”
