SOS Children's Villages Nigeria - In 1970, after three years of civil war, Hermann Gmeiner visited Nigeria on the invitation of the "National Council of Women Society" (NCWS) and gained an insight on the needs of the population, particularly those of the children. After several meetings with concerned individuals of the country, the SOS Children's Village Committee under the leadership of Mrs. Awoliyi was founded; this made it possible to raise the necessary funds for the construction of an SOS Children's Village in Nigeria.
