A support system for those who have no one

Charis Charity Organization was founded on a simple conviction — that every elderly person and widow deserves dignity, care, and community, regardless of their circumstances.

Operating across Nigeria and the United Kingdom, we run regular outreach programmes delivering food, medical support, and essential supplies to vulnerable individuals in underserved communities.
