BERIKIDS is a Non-Governmental
Organization of persons, who work behind the ideology of
Madame NDZE Relindis BERINYUY with the strategy initiatives to
treat and rehabilitate mentally disabled persons and also train orphans, single mothers and vulnerable children (OVCs)
including underprivileged children through the provision of
appropriate facilities for their proper growth and development.
The philosophy that brought the BERIKIDS
Non-Governmental Organization to life, stems from the personal experiences lived
by the founder of the group, who was a victim of matrimonial
injustice and maltreatments of a polygamous marriage. You can read
more about the History of BERIKIDS on the Webpage -
HISTORY.
With free and open membership of the group by
those who share in her ideology, in 2004 BERIKIDS embarked on the
training of orphans and vulnerable children on various vocational
skills that can make them self-reliant upon leaving the centre by
the able support in kind and cash as well as services through a
sound structure of its members as
follows:
Presently, the centre runs a
tailoring workshop, a computer training centre, a carpentry
workshop, an agricultural complex and a psychiatric centre with a
psychiatrist who takes care of youths affected by drugs abuse (marijuana,
alcohol, etc), and other ones with various mental disorders.
