Dear Patrons, Friends and Donors,
It is my pleasure and delight to be able to express through this medium my profound gratitude, that of the members of the board of trustees, the little saints, and the missionaries to you all for your consistent support. The vision has been proven and tested. It is established in the hearts of all who know us that it is a vision from God, therefore it will not fail because God has raised you, our patrons, as co- laborers with us. We are builders and restorers of lives.
The past few years have been full of challenges, but glory to God we have surmounted everyone of them. We have come out stronger, more passionate and more determined to finish the race that God has set before us. We can never fail because God can not fail. Our help comes from God. His GRACE is continually being multiplied and his mercies renewed in our lives. The Glory of the latter shall be greater than that of the former. Patrons, please do not be weary of sowing in Little Saints Orphanage. Your giving redounds to the glory of God. The excellence of the vision, the well being of all the little saints and the ever increasing prosperity in your lives is evidence that you are sowing on good ground. Keep it up!
It is a delight to me and I believe it pleases God to see our young Nigerians coming to volunteer their time at the orphanage. Every year, Loyola Jesuit College, Abuja has consistently sent their students to render one month of voluntary service.
Children from nursery, primary and secondary schools in Lagos come regularly to visit the little saints and the Youth Corpers are not left out. It's a pleasant sight to behold, and we rejoice because this was one of the prayer points at the onset of the vision. That our young should be touched with the feelings of their less privileged peers, so that they can grow up to be unselfish and generous. To see this come to pass strengthens our faith in God and our Little Saints Day slogan ' Catch the Spirit of Love, Spread the feeling' is working.
We continue to pray that generations after ours will be more compassionate than we have been. They will not allow or tolerate the oppression and negligence of the needy that is prevalent in our society today. There is hope! I assure you things will only get better as long as all those in humanitarian services do not give up.
In 2008, I initiated the formation of the Association of Orphanages and Homes Operators in Nigeria (ASOHON). This was a move towards unity and cooperation to enhance the welfare of all vulnerable children in orphanages. To unite to protect and promote their rights. We have a strong board of trustees of founders and many states are keying into the vision of ASOHON.
In May 2015 , ASOHON received a coveted and enviable AWARD OF RECOGNITION from the Lagos State Ministry of Youth and Social Development. It was their own way of appreciating the efforts of orphanage founders and operators . We are very zealous to work harder. We are excited!
The Missionaries and children of Little Saints Orphanage use this medium to express our deep gratitude to my God-given, God-ordained husband & daddy of all of us in Strong Tower House, CAPT. JIDE GEORGE, Chairman of the board of trustees & Goldmyne International ltd, His contributions are too numerous and outstanding to mention in this small space, but God who knows is the same God who rewards.
We thank all our education Sponsors, all our magnanimous donors and friends, you are equipping the Little Saints for a bright and glorious future. God will faithfully multiply your sources of wealth, give you long life, peace and joy to enjoy the fruits of your works.

People out there who look for reasons not to give come up with lies and rumors about our vision. I want everyone to know that:
WE DO NOT CHARGE FOR ADOPTION.
WE DO NOT GO FROM DOOR TO DOOR TO SOLICIT FOR MONEY.
WE DO NOT ENGAGE IN PRIVATE ADOPTIONS, ALL OUR ADOPTIONS ARE DONE WITH APPROVAL LETTERS FROM THE LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT MINISTRY.
WE DO NOT GIVE MONEY IN EXCHANGE FOR BABIES TO WOMEN WITH UNPLANNED PREGNANCIES.
A visit to Little Saints Orphanage is all that is needed to see first hand the true picture of things. Friends, pay us a visit. We love to see you. Celebrate your birthdays with the Little Saints and make memories, you will look back in the future and will be glad that you did. True religion or Spirituality is to identify with the needy.
Our diligence, excellence and integrity has been commended and encouraged with numerous awards. We are grateful for all of them and for the commitment of Godly and Kind-hearted individuals who are part of our historic achievements. They applaud the high standard of the orphanage and choose to stand by us.
Patrons, friends, and donors, please be proud of us and continue to do your good works. The success of the vision is a part of your own achievement because we can never do this on our own. Lets continue to lay the foundations for many generations. Click on 'PROJECTS' and 'WAYS TO HELP' on our home page in other to make your contributions.
We are reaching out for help to organizations and everyone who wants to see a change on our streets especially as there are plans to transform Lagos into a Mega City. The time to take our children off the streets is now, if George Muller did it in 18th century England, why can't we do it in Nigeria? All things are possible with God.
From Lagos, this fire of love for needy children is spreading across the nation and beyond. Watch and see what the Lord will do!
The question is, are you willing to be a part of making history for the needy children of Nigeria? Then join our team and let's build a SAFE HAVEN FOR CHILDREN. This is our ultimate project for the evacuation of street children for reformation and reintegration.
Our darling daughter Temiitayo George-Benson has branded our Praise event 'JOYNIGHT', it's a new season of Joy and laughter. At JOYNIGHT, we share the vision, appreciate and entertain our patrons. Seeing the progress of the vision and the lovely faces of the Little Saints usually inspire everyone. Make your night a Joynight for the sake of humanity! Dates for Joynight are usually announced on our website.
