Today is the D Day of our February theme which is #SocialJustice 

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

World Day of Social Justice is

20th February set aside by the United Nations.

Their focus theme for the celebration is Strengthening a Just Transition for a Sustainable Future.

Strengthening a just transition for a sustainable future means making sure our move toward low-carbon economies benefits everyone, especially the most vulnerable. It requires a holistic approach that weaves environmental sustainability (TLF's March theme) with social justice (TLF's February theme), ensuring that workers (TLF's June theme), indigenous peoples, and marginalized communities receive the support they need (TLF's December theme) —through retraining, job creation, and strong social protection measures. 

Decarbonization and economic transformation should support policies that fight poverty, reduce inequality, and open up opportunities for all and in the end profer solutions to charity and social development which is the aim and objectives of TLF.

At the heart of this is synchronizing “just transition” principles into both global and national policies. These would redirect investments into emerging green sectors, building a resilient workforce and a more equitable society.

Through collective action and inclusive policies, we can create a future where environmental integrity and social equity go hand in hand, forming the foundation of a truly sustainable global economy.

The General Assembly of the UN recognizes that social development and social justice are indispensable for the achievement and maintenance of peace and security within and among nations and that, in turn, social development and social justice cannot be attained in the absence of peace and security, or in the absence of respect for all human rights and fundamental freedoms.

It was on the 26th of November 2007, that the General Assembly declared that, starting from the 63rd session of the General Assembly, 20th February will be celebrated annually as the World Day of Social Justice.

Theme Bible Verses

Matthew 12:34 You brood of vipers! how can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 37 for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." Proverbs 16:28 A perverse man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends. Proverbs 17: 9 He who forgives an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter alienates a friend. Leviticus 19:16 You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people, and you shall not stand forth against the life of your neighbour: I am the LORD. Proverbs 26:20 For lack of wood the fire goes out; and where there is no whisperer, quarrelling ceases. 22 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body. Proverbs 11:13 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets, but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing hidden. Psalms 34:13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Charles For: Frien...

Did You Know?

Creativity comes from God the Creator and He has given us pro-creative abilities in different areas to make the world a better place and provide works of charity. In TLF we are big on arts, crafts and creativity. We celebrate creativity. Many people have been able to support charitable causes from creative art exhibitions and sales. Many others have also used their creative works to raise awareness on various laudable causes for social development. Take for instance in our theme for this month, we have selected some creative art works that will help pass our message to us in an artistic way. Also in our Centre, we host children who often come just to draw and make things from recycled materials. We strongly invite you to like our facebook page - TLF Creativity. We also share and retweet such creativity on our X handle that we also invite you to like and share. Our various artworks in TLF add to the posters we paste around and the comics we also produce and share out. Join our facebook ...
