OUR PROJECTS
As we all navigate through the times of climate change, it is important to take crucial steps and measures, that will boost the economy at the grassroots. Areas where most of our agricultural produce comes from, and of course, it’s the community that majorly comprises low-income individuals. To avoid famine in the land, discontinue the vicious circle, and avoid thirst and hunger, it has become imperative to embark on sustainable solutions that will serve as a breakthrough for all communities involved and benefit the environment as well.
On October 5th, 2024 our amiable project management team did a fantastic job at Government Girls School Tundun Nupawa, Kaduna School. We sensitize students from JSS 1 - 3 on how important it is, for them to always keep a clean environment. We also raised awareness of menstrual hygiene and how it can prevent diseases such as Pelvic Inflammatory disease (PID) and toxic shock syndrome.
We highlighted the role water plays in helping women and girls have a hygienic menstrual period and how clean water prevents the spread of diseases in our environment. Also, enlightened them on reasons why water conservation and management is crucial. We donated sanitary pads to all students (JSS 1-3) and detergents. It was an interactive session for everyone present at the awareness program, students who engaged in the Q&A session were given writing books in addition to what we already donated. We crowned the event by choosing a Neatness Ambassador from each class, though it was a tough decision, students and teachers there present assisted us in making this choice and we awarded our Neatness Ambassadors with books and customized T-shirts.
Upogoro Community, Kogi State is made up of over 1 million individuals with no easy access to clean water for use. We are looking at having an industrial borehole with two fetching points that will span across the villages around the Upogoro community also in the same dilemma of lacking water. We kindly request donations to make this project come through and provide water to the Upogoro community and its environs.
Pictures below show the project flier, abandoned manual pump, and early morning struggles of women and kids searching for water in the Upogoro Community.
On October 5, 2024, We collaborated with the Kwara State Ministry of Environmental Protection Agency (KWEPA)to conduct a comprehensive cleanup exercise at Mandate Market, Ilorin Kwara state. Despite the heavy downpour of rain, the team made a successful outreach which was aimed to promote environmental sustainability and enhance the market's aesthetic appeal. The Foundation donated two 240-liter waste bins, cleaned up the marketplace, and hired a private waste collector to collect all trash from the market that day, whilst vendors and customers in the market were also enlightened on the importance of proper sanitation and hygiene in the environment at all times.
We are proud to contribute to the well-being of our community and look forward to future collaborative initiatives.
Empowering the Next Generation.
On October 9th, 2024, we visited Usman Danfodio Model Secondary School, Sokoto State to sensitize all students on the importance of water conservation and methods to manage water and its resources, we raised awareness of personal and environmental hygiene and encouraged all to practice the habit of cleanliness at all times. We educated students on proper hygiene practices and donated sanitary supplies. Also recognized and rewarded 3 'Neatness Ambassadors' from JSS 1-3 with books and customised shirts. It was a fun-filled experience as some students participated in Q&A sessions and they were awarded writing material at the end. Inspiring cleanliness, confidence, and a love for learning!
Ayede Olola community was founded 200 years ago, with a current average population of 500 people. The major occupation in this community is farming and petty trade. Before now the major source of water to this populace is a narrow stream and a dysfunctional hand pumped borehole.
On July 7th, 2024 the foundation commissioned a borehole project and handed it over to the community. We also donated A brand new generator for ease of pumping water to the storage tank. Likewise, we provided sensitization and awareness on water management, sanitation, and hygiene
