It's another fine Tuesday,
Goodmorning. Kindly read this story I saw on Vivien's Facebook wall:
One cold night, A billionaire met an old poor man outside.
He asked him 'don't you feel cold being outside, and not wearing any coat?'
The old man replied "'i don't have it but i got used to that.'"
The billionaire replied " wait me.
I will enter to my house now and bring you one. "
The poor man got so happy and said he will wait him.
The billionaire entered his house and got busy there and forgot the poor man.
In the morning he remembered that poor old man and he went out to search for him but he found him dead coz of cold with a NOTE:
"When I didn't have any warm clothes, I had the power to fight the cold coz I was used to that. But when you promised me to help me, I got attached to your promise and that took my power of resisting'".
"Don't promise anything if you can't keep your promise.
It might not mean anything to you, but it could mean everything to someone else!"

This week for us at the TLF centre we have 3 major activities line with our monthly outline-
*1. Excursion for the children at the centre which is to be on the last day of every month.*
But since 31st March is Mothers' day, we will be having it on Saturday 30th God willing. This month we will be taking the children to a part of town where they will experience the act of charity, advocacy, gratitude and positive exposure. God willing in months to come there are plans to take them to other fun, educative and expository sites such as the zoo, museum, stadium and others.

*2. Public Social Activity of street cleaning and tree/flower planting to mark our 'Nature Month'*
Recall that last Month which was our 'Social Justice Month' we visited the Remand Home and took pro bono cases alongside NBA Public Defender Committee and secured the release and also the bail of a number of children held as offenders all these years.

*3. Monthly donation of a minimum of N15,000 for a cause.*
Last month we were elated and privileged to support the Widows Project embarked upon by HYF to help the widows in ensuring their children go to school. This month we will be visiting a public hospital/primary health care to make the donation. We usually write the names of the donors and ask the recipients to remember them in prayers.

TLF is actually just the channel! Take note that there are many people here and out there who are doing more and amazing things in their own way. There is no compulsion or force or obligation because like me I know we all have personal financial obligations. But if we can and will and also know others who can, we would be asking again this month for financial donation. If we have excess we would not need to ask for these particular things next month. Just like we now have money for data for the next 2 months, April and May.

Minimum N15,000 for our hospital visit, Minimum N5000 for our excursion (its an entry free site), Minimum N3000 for our street cleaning and tree/flower planting in our environment/streets.

Other expenses include- Money for refreshments weekly for the children and volunteers, money for transportation and credit, money for stipends for volunteers, money for craft equipments, money for more chess, scrabble, ludo boards, ayo and other games, money for another badminton net, shuttles and sticks, money for the table for table tennis (we have the bats and balls and net), money for smaller plastic chairs and tables for children in the centre (we are having younger children who are finding the regular plastic chairs pretty high), money for smaller guitars, drum set, recorders (flutes), money for Queen Premier, drawing books, picture books and educational charts! We have most of these but need more as we are expanding.

*We can receive any of these by themselves being given to us, or in cash, kind or by referrals*

That TLF will become a school or church or amusement park is not in our mission, vision, aim, objective, desire, plan or prayers. But everything is held in trust and owned by the Foundation. Thank you for your time and we look forward to your response please.

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs? Like food, shelter, clothings and transportation? What about having what to give to others in need? There are so many reasons to work. I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...
