As Christians have been called by the Second Vatican Council to collaborate wholeheartedly in creating international partnerships to alleviate the suffering endured by those less fortunate among us, so we take up the charge with the establishment of the Raphael-Evelyn American - Nigerian Alliance for Human Development.

The Raphael-Evelyn American - Nigerian Alliance intends to work to bring together key players in the education field in both nations so that the possibility of a good education is available to all children in Nigeria.
