The monthly M&E meeting with the OVCs CVs took place on June 23, 2016, at the Community Town Hall in Emeyal-I. The meeting was attended by the RHF Project team and the ten OVC CVs.
The CVs presented their monthly report as follows:
The CVs from Otuoke community stated that some of the OVCs enrolled in Otuoke are sick, while some others dropped out of school due to non-payment of school fees. They also stated that one of the OVC caregivers had died. In addition, they reported that the Caregivers of the beneficiaries of the educational materials have shown a sign of gratitude to the organisation and funders of the project.
The CV from the Kolo-II community, Elsi Okpara, reported that some of the OVC in Kolo-II have been sick too, due to a lack of proper medical care. In her report, she also mentioned that most parents of children who didn’t meet the enrollment criteria are unhappy with her. However, the Caregivers of the beneficiaries are very happy with the educational materials that were given to the children.
The CV from Kolo-II mentioned in her report that one of the OVCs named Godsgift Korea is asthmatic and currently he is very sick and needs good medical support.
The CV from Emeyal-I also reported that one of the OVC named Chukwu Goodluck was suffering from sickle cell anaemia, and was having a crisis that needed a prompt medical assistant, but passed on, unfortunately. Another OVC also lost his caregiver, and at the time of speaking, the house where he lived was being headed by a younger person.
