On Thursday, 15th February 2024, the AAA Global Care Foundation team returned to central Prague late in the evening to distribute groceries to the homeless. This event marked a significant moment, as Pastor Yomi had just come back from Nigeria, where he participated in the „Rice for Nigeria“ project, and the volunteers had been on a holiday break. The homeless community had keenly felt their absence and were genuinely delighted to see Pastor Yomi and the team again.
On Saturday, February 17th, the AAA Global Care Foundation continued its work supporting families in need across Prague. They delivered essential groceries to grateful families, bringing a bit of relief and a reminder that they’re not alone.
The pictures show the impact of their efforts. Families, with genuine smiles, received the much-needed supplies. Each bag represented more than just food; it represented hope and a helping hand.
The AAA Global Care Foundation goes beyond simply providing basic necessities. They understand the importance of building community and fostering hope, especially during challenging times. By consistently reaching out and offering support, they make a real difference in the lives of countless individuals.
This act of kindness inspires us all. It reminds us of the power we each have to impact others, even through seemingly small gestures. Let’s celebrate the AAA Global Care Foundation’s dedication and strive to emulate their compassion in our own lives, creating a brighter future for everyone in need.
On the 29th January 2024 AAA Global Care Foundation recently made a trip to the IDP Camp in Abagena, Makurdi, Nigeria.
IDP stands for Internal Displacement Camp. It’s a place where people go when they have to leave their homes because of violence or the threat of violence. These people often arrive with nothing.
Volunteers from the AAA Global Care Foundation drove from Kaduna to the camp with a Toyota full of supplies like rice, beans, and spices. They teamed up with local volunteers to give out these supplies. They organized the event carefully to make sure everyone received their packages smoothly.
In the video shared, you’ll notice a lot of women and children, and fewer men. Many of the women are widows, lost their husbands to recent violence. It’s also clear that a lot of people are wearing worn-out clothes because they don’t have anything else to wear.
Even though the situation is tough, the mood in the camp was surprisingly positive, with many smiles around. The volunteers handed out hundreds of packages, each with enough food for about 10 meals, helping each family for a few days.
The interaction between the volunteers and the camp residents was touching. It showed that kindness and support during hard times are valuable, offering hope and a sense of community.

On a day that was meant to celebrate the birth of one of our own, the AAA Global Care Foundation team embarked on a journey filled with hope, compassion, and the desire to make a tangible difference in the lives of the homeless youth of Oshodi, Lagos, Nigeria. This visit, held on February 3, 2024, transcended beyond a mere outreach; it became a beacon of light for many who have long dwelt in the shadows of society.
Our interaction with the community was deeply moving, not just for the youths we set out to support but for every member of our team. Amidst the challenges these young individuals face daily, we found moments of pure joy and heartfelt connection. The day was spent not only sharing meals and joyful birthday songs but also in prayer and words of encouragement that we hoped would ignite a spark of hope in their hearts.
Understanding the critical role communication plays in today’s world, and recognizing the isolation felt by many of these youths, the AAA Global Care Foundation took a step further by gifting mobile phones to some individuals within the community. This gesture aimed to connect them back to the world, provide them with access to opportunities, and most importantly, give them a tool through which they can reach out for help and support.
The distribution of food brought smiles and a sense of community as we all shared a meal, breaking down barriers and reminding us all of our shared humanity. It was a moment of unity, where the simple act of eating together served as a powerful reminder of the basic needs that bind us all, regardless of our backgrounds.
Our prayers and words of encouragement were aimed at uplifting the spirits of these young souls, providing them with a sense of belonging and hope for the future. We shared stories of resilience, success against the odds, and the importance of holding onto dreams, no matter how distant they may seem.
The impact of this visit was profound. Witnessing the joy in their eyes, the genuine smiles, and the laughter that filled the air was a clear reminder of why the work of the AAA Global Care Foundation is so crucial. But our efforts do not stop here. This visit has strengthened our resolve to continue our mission of rehabilitation for these young individuals. We are more committed than ever to providing them with the resources, education, and support needed to transform their lives.
As we reflect on this day of hope and shared humanity, we extend an invitation to you, our community, to join us in this mission. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of the homeless youth of Lagos. Your support, whether through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, can help us turn these moments of connection into a sustained effort to uplift and empower.
The AAA Global Care Foundation believes in a future where every child and youth has the opportunity to lead a fulfilling life, free from the shackles of homelessness and despair. Join us as we work towards making this vision a reality. Together, we can make a difference.

Reaching Out in Times of Sorrow
In December 2023, the small community of Bokkos in Plateau State, Nigeria, faced unimaginable terror: a brutal attack that claimed over 200 lives. Amidst this sorrow, the AAA Global Care Foundation stepped in to offer support and share in the grief of those affected.
The Context of the Tragedy
To fully grasp the significance of this visit, it’s important to understand the context. The attacks between December 23rd and 25th, targeting 17 communities, were part of a larger, ongoing conflict in the area. This region has seen its fair share of strife, often due to land and religious disputes. Factors like unemployment, overpopulation, and historical tensions have only added fuel to the fire.
AAA Global Care Foundation’s Gesture of Solidarity
In such a grim scenario, the team from AAA Global Care Foundation arrived at the IDP camp not just to offer condolences but to genuinely connect with those who were suffering. They listened to the stories of the widows, the bereaved, and all those affected by the attacks. In a simple yet profound gesture, two representatives danced with the community, symbolizing a shared hope for better days.
Their prayers for peace and healing crossed all cultural and religious boundaries, offering a moment of unity in a time of division.
A Community’s Demand for Action
The aftermath of the attacks has been tough, with the community calling for justice and better protection. The response from the Nigerian Army and the government has been under scrutiny, and the call for action has resonated globally.
In January 2024, a massive rally in Jos, the state capital, brought together thousands calling for peace and accountability, underlining the community’s resilience and desire for change.
The visit by the AAA Global Care Foundation to the Bokkos IDP camp reminds us of the power of human connection in the face of tragedy. It’s a story about not just offering sympathy but truly standing with those in pain. As we reflect on these events, it’s a call to all of us to remember the value of empathy and the need for lasting solutions to prevent such tragedies in the future. Here are some more images.
Today, January 5th, 2024, was an enriching experience in Prague. I engaged in our regular outreach activity, meeting with my homeless friends across different parts of the city. Their gratitude for the reading glasses and bibles we provided was deeply touching. Each visit strengthens our bond and reinforces my eagerness for our next gathering. This initiative is more than just an act of giving; it’s a journey towards a more loving and compassionate world. Join us in this mission to make a difference and make the world a better place.
On this day, December 30, 2023, the AAA Global Care Foundation was present by Prague main station, offering support and supplies to the homeless community. As shown in the images, volunteers, including Pastor Yomi, gave their time and compassion, reaching out to those often forgotten. The foundation’s response to the pressing needs of these individuals reminds us of the power of collective effort in bringing about positive change. Support the AAA Global Care Foundation in their endeavour to create a world filled with kindness and hope. Also see the video of the event, after the photos.
In the heart of winter on December 29, 2023, the AAA Global Care Foundation made a meaningful difference in the lives of a struggling family in Prague. With a steadfast commitment to supporting the vulnerable, the foundation provided essential sustenance and care, bringing a glimmer of hope during tough times. Their mission is to make a real impact, one family at a time. If you’re aware of someone in need, reaching out to the foundation could be a step towards offering them a helping hand.
On Christmas Eve, December 24, 2023, the AAA Global Care Foundation was out in the center of Prague, where they offered a gesture of kindness to those in need. Under the city’s bright street lights and against the backdrop of historic buildings, three men could be seen enjoying a seasonal gift of food. They were served a warm meal of risotto with fried mackerel, a comforting reprieve from the winter cold that enveloped the cobblestone streets.
Wrapped up in thick jackets and hats, the men also received a treat of Milka chocolates, adding a sweet note to the holiday evening. The picture captures a simple yet meaningful exchange: full bowls in hand, smiles, and the togetherness that embodies the spirit of Christmas. It was a night that brought the warmth of generosity to the cold, dark streets of Prague, demonstrating the foundation’s commitment to caring for those who are often overlooked.
On Friday 22.12.2023 the AAA Global Care Foundation continued their tradition of showing kindness and compassion to the homeless people in Holesovice Train station, Prague 7.They brightened their days by providing them with food and essentials. They recognized their dignity and humanity, and affirmed that they too have a right to a better life.
