Lives of underserved and vulnerable children in Lagos State were touched recently as TGI Distri Limited, a distribution, sales, marketing and logistics subsidiary of Tropical General Investments (TGI) Group, marked its sixth anniversary.

On Monday, November 20, 2023, the firm visited the headquarters of the Little Saints Orphanages at Palmgrove Estate, Lagos, to donate its nourishing food brands, including rice, soya oil and seasoning cubes, to the orphanage for the children’s wellbeing.

The team had a brief discussion session with the management and staff of the Little Saints Orphanages to appreciate the good work done by the home in caring for vulnerable children.

The TGI Distri team commended them and stated that their visit and support were to fulfill its promise of nourishing lives and giving back to society. Addressing the Little Saints Orphanages team, Tony Ogbonna, the category marketing manager, applauded the orphanage for the remarkable work done over the years and urged them to continue caring for and nurturing the children.

Commenting, the firm’s managing director, Deepanjan Roy, explained that there was no better way of marking the anniversary than by spreading happiness and making a lasting difference in the lives of the wonderful children.

He added that the children’s event was also part of TGI Distri’s commitment to nourishing lives and lifting the vulnerable and underserved, particularly orphans.

“At TGI Distri, we prioritise seamless and prompt distribution of high-quality food products and remain committed to uplifting the needy and vulnerable. This is why we are marking our sixth anniversary with these wonderful children. Our sixth anniversary celebration at Little Saints Orphanages is proof of our mission of making a positive impact on the lives of the communities we serve. Together, we can create a brighter future for these children,” he said.
