The flagship initiative of the organization is the Lapierre Centre of Excellence for Disabled (LCED), a fully integrated and equipped residential care facility for physically challenged and destitute children. The Lapierre Centre is our homage to the selfless saga of compassionate philanthropy of our benevolent friends Dominique Dada and Didi. In the years to come, the Centre will stand tall and proud with finest support and services to the underprivileged poor children who have been denied of their basic rights to lead a healthy and dignified life.
