Lanre Olagoke was once homeless and on the streets of London subjecting himself to drugs. Fortunately however, he was one of the few to escape this life with the help of ART.

Having gone through this experience himself, he understands the juveniles and is therefore the best person to spearhead this charitable project.

We are working with the Charity Art-Alive Arts Trust who help the homeless and marginalised youth.

In the last two decades, the youth have lost out in basic fundamentals such as effective education, safe places, a healthy start and the situation is getting worse.

His engagement with over 5,000 youths/adults in the last 2 decades have been an eye opener and it takes people with compassion and a heart to help.

With your support we will be able to help the youth to progress into education and reintegrate them back into the community.

We will also create path ways to employment, education and training, maintaining regular contact with beneficiaries to ensure commitment to post project placement.

We intend to change the narrative of the way society views the young vulnerable people.

Thank you.
