About Us
Our Story
We are a Team who have lived and experienced the life of a migrant and decided to come together to form Jesuscina Foundation. At the early stage of the pandemic, we were using internally generated funds to give out donations to migrants who were made redundant and were not on any form of benefits and others who had a long wait for a response from the Home Office. The number of beneficiaries grew to the extent we could no longer afford so we decided to register as a charity to be eligible for funding to help increase our client base and as well increase our services to include anyone who is socially disadvantaged.
Our Vision
Jesuscina Foundation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation who’s objective is to relief the needs of migrants who need help settling and building their lives in the UK. We aim to extend our support to any person(s) socially disadvantaged; by providing education, training and support, advice and counselling. The Foundation seeks to expand it‘s beneficiary base to support family’s cost of living through an established Community Hub.
