PROGRAMMES
February 14 is our Annual Humanitarian Day, the day we set aside to visit and care for some special people living around us. Often, we visit government-owned hospital female wards and orphanage homes with gift items and support that can make them feel loved.
However, this year, we visited the Centre for Destitute Empowerment International home at 8 Makanjuola close, Akinwunmi Kosemani Street, Orisunbare Shasha, Idimu, and Jakande Junior Secondary Oke Afa where the Executive Director (Mrs Viola Okoro) of our foundation delivered a speech on Leadership Paths in a Seminar organized by the Rotary Club, Egbe District. Both venues visited were in Lagos, Nigeria.
Again, on October 11, 2022, we celebrated International Girl Child Day with teenage girls from three Federal Government Colleges in Ogun State. The Venue of the event was F. S. T. C. Ijebu-Imusin. Other Federal Government Colleges in attendance were F.G.G.C. Sagamu and F.G.C.Odogbolu. The theme is “Empowered Girls Grow Up To Be Empowered Women”. It exposed the girls to different learnings and communication skills that enhanced their empowerment. Over a thousand hundred girls were in attendance, and the programme continues online; the online community was established immediately after the programme to give them more support.
In addition to the foundation programmes, the Executive Director of our Foundation, Mrs Viola E. Okoro, supported other organizations with their programmes as a Keynote Speaker, Guest Speaker, or guest, among others. Such programmes happened in the church, school and event place, and she earned awards and recognitions in rendering such services.
OUR FOCUS IN 2023
1. The Girl Child Education and Skill Acquisition Programme will continue, and we will be more inclusive by reaching out to single teenage mothers and girls with disabilities.
2. The Low Income/Indigent Women Empowerment Programmes will continue.
3. The Mentoring Programme will continue both online and onsite.
4. Other emergency programmes that are solution driven would be given attention.
5. We will continue with the Girl Child Day Theme until we reach out to our Six thousand (6000) teenage girls target for the programme.
We appreciate all our donors and sponsors, especially Lady Nikky’s co-sponsorship of the programme. Our Donors and Sponsors are appreciated because they helped us achieve all. Let us do it together again.
Thank you.
