Somali Centre for Education and Development; commonly known as SOCED

 

Mission Statement

 

The SOCED fights to alleviate child poverty, hunger, and illiteracy throughout Somaliland. SOCED focuses on helping impoverished and orphaned children and their caregivers attain, and maintain, a better quality of life through education, vocational training, orphan sponsorship and self-enablement programs.

 

Objectives

 

• Improve the quality of living among impoverished and orphaned children; regardless of status, tribe, age, sex or location, all over Somaliland through education, skills training and orphan sponsorship.

 

• Ensure that all disadvantaged and orphaned children, whether in the urban or rural areas have an equal opportunity to complete an education.

 

• Provide equal opportunities to impoverished and orphaned children, through vocational skills training, the ability to obtain employment or become self employed through a micro loan program.

 

• Ensure that all impoverished and orphaned children have access to affordable medical care.

 

• Empower orphan children caregivers with basic literacy and vocational skills; paving the way to self sufficiency.

 

Values

 

• The belief that all children are equal, and have an equal right to basic human necessities; including quality education. The belief that a ‘hand up’ is much more beneficial than a ‘hand out’.

 

• Providing support that will have long-term positive effects on the communities, and society at large.

 

• Implementing projects according to the needs of the communities, not the needs of SOCED.

^ Will you two stop trolling everywhere? SubxanAllah.

 

The event sounds like a fab idea and having been to Sucad's last two events, I can guarantee everyone that its going to be classy and a good evening out - so go people!

 

Ibs, do you know what the capacity of the place is? I dont know if I can or cannot make it yet, its probably a call I can make on the Thursday/Friday before the event and I dont want to be left out if it turns out I can make it.

[Ibtisam]

~^^You I saw your wajibook message. wlc back.

 

It is seating arrangement and the management is breathing down our neck about health and safety iyo numbers.

 

I will save you a spot for a fee

 

P.s. We are not trolling, we are planning the event!

[Juxa]

hello serenity, our purpose in life is to troll but for this occassion is actually for a good cause.

[Polanyi]
