Overview

Pure Souls Learning Foundation (PSLF or Foundation) was established and duly incorporated in Nigeria on January 4, 2005 under the companies and Allied Matters Act 1990, with registration number RC 614916. The Foundation has a four-member Board of Trustees and a five-member management team. The primary reasons for establishing the foundation are to provide support and care for children with autism; to create awareness of autistic disorders and their management; to organize seminars and forums on autistic disorders, care and management; and to provide scholarships for indigent autistic children., , Pure Souls Learning Foundation has plans to establish a skills acquisition center to train the adolescents in the Foundations school in their areas of strength, which include tailoring, and to equip them with skills to earn an income in the future. Internally displaced persons (IDPs) from the camps in Lagos will also be trained at the skills acquisition center and will subsequently be employed at the center to serve as trainers for the children. The Foundation, however, lacks the organizational and financial management capacity and needs additional resources and equipment to establish and operate the center effectively.,
