One Child, One Schoolbag project launched in Nigeria! 500 disadvantaged children reached; more than 1000 lives touched already. We hope to reach out to 500 more disadvantaged children before the end of the year. The project was initially launched by Save Our Needy in Benin Republic in 2011.
Children from St Michael's Nursery and Primary Schools 1 and 2, and Alaworo Nursery and Primary School, Ojo-Okokomaiko, were full of smiles and gratitude as they received the donated items comprising schoolbags and writing materials. Some of the beneficiaries of the project were selected from SDK blog.
We sincerely thank the Lagos State Education Board, Stella Dimoko Korkus of SDK blog and Mr Rotimi Oyekanmi (Editor-In-Chief and Founder, The Intellectual Magazine) for their support and encouragement. Our profound gratitude also goes to our partners: Verdant Zeal and Madrew's. A big thank you to all the generous and well-meaning Nigerians including REGMAC International Co. Nig. Ltd who donated to make this project a huge success. May God replenish your pockets in a billion fold.
Join us to promote education amongst disadvantaged children. Support girl-child school enrolment.

ReplyDeleteGood initiative, but dis shud b spread 2 oda states
ReplyDeleteNice initiative bless the kind souls of the donors and the receivers
ReplyDeleteLook beyond this. These bags are imported. They should have been proudly made in Nigeria. We need to think bigger. Encourage industries, create markets and ensure employment for our people so that the parents of these kids will have jobs and can afford to buy them school bags. But in this case China benefits.
ReplyDelete@stelly ozoms We're very willing to spread this initiative across Nigeria so more disadvantaged children will benefit. We hope and pray to get more partners, sponsors and donors that can make this dream become a reality.
ReplyDeleteWonderful initiative. Please use Nigerian made bags. Keep up the good work. Let's keep our money in the country.
DeleteThis initiative is very commendable. Keep it up, Save Our Needy.@Anony 20:47 why don't you send them an email linking them to a company that makes Nigerian bags instead of just typing it here as a comment. It seems as if you're undermining their work because we all know indigenous companies that produce bags in Nigeria are rare if not nonexistent. I'm quite sure they will be happy to cut costs by patronizing indigenous companies for the bags.Just my two cents.
ReplyDeleteit great thing
