Their work inspires others to join the team while their impact is felt far beyond the areas they serve. This courageous organization had chosen to stay and work in the notorious areas.
\nHowever their tireless efforts are often hindered by significant challenges particularly worsen law and order where killings, murders, kidnappings, extortions, robberies at highways and cities, theft , snatchings have become order of the day. These \u201cNo Go\u201d areas pose substantial risks to NGO team of HANDS the effectiveness of the aid delivery.
