IKWERRE BOY

Ikwerre boy’s little way of supporting humanity was through his initiative titled: “PadAGirl” this initiative was developed to sustain and localize the PadBank project by his brand in Port Harcourt, Rivers state of Nigeria for my outside Africa readers on the 20^th of August 2021 at the community secondary school iriebe and community primary school same iriebe. His aims for this initiatives,

·         Supporting menstrual hygiene amongst poor and vulnerable girl.

·         To empower young girls and women going through various forms of stigmatization, abuse and health challenges.

In ikwerre boy’s own words he said: “For most poor and vulnerable girls in Nigeria, as signs of mensuration gets close, it serves as a constant reminder of the oncoming abuse and stigmatization they are about to face. What should be a proud period in their lives, turn out to be their most dreadful moments because some may never get to attend schools during mensuration while others who cannot afford a good menstrual pads rely on old rags and even leaves as alternatives. You need see the joy on the faces of this children, even teachers were gladdened and happy to have us as if they had long expected us” There is no gain saying the detrimental health challenges faced by these poor girls and women are as a result of these unhygienic practices. Some are sexually abused in their quest to look for money to buy menstrual pads. PadAGirl child was accomplished by a great team of the best IkwerreBoy, Ada, Cicib, Vechilz, Megashotz Visuals, Young Endy’s blog, Geraldine, Ordaine Kay, Favorite Foods, Precious, AbleTv and Prince Mega Agency.

LOPEZ IYKE FOUNDATION

Lopez Iyke’s Foundation, founded 2018 by Iyke Lopez himself just as a support to

my statement earlier, here is his reason for forming the foundation: “My NGO was borne out of the mindset of helping vulnerable children especially in the rural areas because I have come to realize after my research that there are a lot of out of school children roaming the streets either hawking, stealing or doing whatever due to poverty. My foundation’s purpose is to bridge the gap between poverty and education and so with like minds I came up with this initiative we had this leading to continue on our own from where we stopped so we decided to venture into charity where we visited some schools and donated books and other learning resources to children who are ready and willing to learn despite being poor because to see others smile makes us happy because we know we are the reason for that smile” 

 Touching lives beyond reach is a guiding motto for this foundation.

FROSHBOI INCOPORATIONS

Froshboi incoporations, well before going further is no foundation or charity the incorporations is in fact a media company focused on delivering media satisfaction to countless fans regardless of their geographical location. So you might wonder what this company is doing here well, they indulged in a humanitarian act too so they qualified to enter. Speaking to their Ceo/Managing Director he said: “While being a profit organization, from time to time we tend to give back to the community how, well we partner with other brands, initiatives, charities and foundations to give out extensively the profit we made in the course of our working it makes us happy seeing kids, adults, disabled and even poor people smiling and knowing it is due to our charity they are smiling while I haven’t handled more projects like the two people mentioned earlier however I have done some and is planning some more. From giving sanitary pads to giving to orphanages, motherless children homes handicapped and old people homes we have covered and touched lives in many ways and we are happy we can and we had and will continue no matter what” Giving makes us happy is this companies slogan in any area as they are a service company it is only fitting.

 

The above are just a few examples we have others and we will be covering them subsequently during the new show we are about to launch: AROUND PORTHARCOURT CITY WITH FROSHBOI which will feature any brand, business or hustle with lively interviews and until next time we are here to serve.
