The Assumption Nutrition Centre was opened 24 years ago by the Missionary Sisters of the Assumption, with the purpose of helping the children in jeopardy to overcome their situation to restore children dignity and avoid hand out. The children are the future of tomorrow and helping them, is to build a great society for tomorrow. We believe that, it is through these children that the cycle of poverty can be broken.
