The Ekene Smith Adigwu Youth Foundation is set to bring festive cheer to orphans and widows this Christmas through its annual outreach program.

The celebration will take place on 23rd December at 12:00 p.m. at the Charitas Orphanage and Widowhood Foundation, through the Foundation’s dedicated Food Bank initiative, aside the monthly donation to the Orphanage.

This marks the second edition of the event at the orphanage, and the Foundation is calling for sponsorships and partnerships to make this year’s program even more impactful.

The day promises to be memorable, with activities including a talk show, mentorship sessions, Bible study, quiz competitions, games, and plenty of food and drinks for everyone.

In addition, the founder, Ekene Smith Adigwu, will use the occasion to unveil his new project initiative themed “Orphans Go to School.” The project aims to build a school for orphans while also providing educational materials to orphanages across Nigeria. Beyond meeting immediate needs, the initiative seeks to emphasize the importance of education and skill development for orphans.

Looking ahead, Mr Ekene Smith Adigwu envisions expanding the project across and beyond Nigeria to other parts of Africa. “By God’s grace, this will grow into a billion-dollar project,” he expressed, “because with God, all things are possible. Every big change begins with a positive idea.”
However, your sponsorship and partnership would be greatly appreciated.
