The SOS Children's Village of Lagos was built approximately 15 km outside the capital. It comprises 10 family houses and several additional buildings. Every house has a large veranda, where the children can play during the rainy season. Otherwise they frolic around in the playground. The SOS Primary School and the SOS Kindergarten are also part of the complex. Both SOS facilities are open to children from the neighbourhood. In 1991, a SOS Vocational Training Centre was established four youths in a rented house. Since the room in the rented house has become too small due to the tremendous popularity of the centre the construction of a new building was started and finished even before the end of the year. The SOS Vocational Trainings Centre offers training in the following sections: computer skills, leatherworks, sewing and fashion design, arts and crafts and home economics. The training at the SOS VTC leads to an officially recognized certificate. At the moment, there are 190 students.
