Recent events and impacts
Our commitment to community service and youth empowerment was evident in our two most recent successful initiatives:
Ikot Edong Afaha Obo Community Give Back Exercise
As part of our continuous effort to give back to society, we recently organized an outreach program in the Ikot Edong Afaha Obo community. During this event, we provided essential support to the less privileged, distributing food items to widows, textbooks to students, and offering free medical checkups along with over-the-counter medications. This initiative impacted hundreds of lives and further strengthened the bond within the community.
Activate the Youth Business Summit Program
Youth empowerment is at the heart of our foundation's vision. Our "Activate the Youth" business summit brought together over 500 young people for a day of inspiration, learning, and networking. The program featured talks by industry leaders and entrepreneurs, offering invaluable insights into the world of business and entrepreneurship. The overwhelming success of the event highlights the critical role our foundation plays in motivating the next generation to pursue their dreams.
Together, we can make a lasting impact. Whether through donations, partnerships, or volunteering, there are many ways to get involved.
