Child Upgrade Charity Initiative is committed to creating awareness, protecting the rights of children and helping young people develop the knowledge, confidence and sense of purpose they need to move forward.
Child Upgrade Charity Initiative (CUCI) is a Nigerian charitable and youth development organization focused on children and young people. Our work is rooted in awareness, child rights, education, personal development, self-esteem, self-confidence and youth empowerment.
We believe that young people deserve the knowledge, encouragement and opportunity to understand their rights, make informed choices and develop the confidence to contribute positively to their communities and country.
Our approach is centered on creating meaningful awareness, encouraging healthy development and giving young people a voice on issues that matter to them and to the wider society.
CUCI's work is grounded in a clear commitment to children, young people, their rights and their development.
We seek to create awareness among children and young people about issues that affect their wellbeing, rights and future, while encouraging education, personal development, healthy self-esteem and self-confidence.
We envision young Nigerians who are enlightened, empowered and confident enough to understand their rights, overcome limiting mindsets, find their voice and participate meaningfully in the society around them.
Our objectives provide the foundation for the areas we seek to address through awareness, education, advocacy and youth development.
To create awareness about the dangers of psychotropic drugs and the consequences of indulgence in illicit sex, including the risks associated with HIV/AIDS.
To project and protect the rights of the child as enshrined in relevant Nigerian statutes and international instruments to which Nigeria is signatory.
To ensure that Nigerian youth are enlightened and liberated from ignorance, illiteracy and mindsets that keep them trapped from reaching their potential.
To give young people a voice in vital issues affecting the country and equip them with healthy senses of self-esteem, self-confidence and self-development.
These focus areas reflect the objectives and values of CUCI. They provide a framework for the organization's work with children and young people.
Promoting awareness and understanding of the rights and protection of children.
Encouraging young people to develop their voice, confidence and capacity to participate positively.
Helping young people gain knowledge and awareness that can influence informed decisions.
Supporting personal development, self-esteem, self-confidence and positive choices.
Creating awareness around the dangers and consequences of psychotropic and illicit drug use.
Encouraging young people to discover their potential, develop confidence and take constructive responsibility.
Children and young people need more than opportunities. They need knowledge, encouragement and an environment where their potential can be recognized and developed.
CUCI seeks to contribute to that process by focusing on awareness, rights, education, personal development and empowerment.
CUCI is committed to work that encourages awareness, protects children's rights and supports young people in developing the knowledge, confidence and mindset to make positive choices and contribute meaningfully to society.
