Heart 2 Feed Serves Over 6000 Women and Children in Ajegunle

The Ajegunle edition was carried out in partnership with volunteers of Dreams from the Slum Initiative, an NGO that also carries out development projects in the community.

The day was an exciting one – especially for the kids – who were treated to a special Christmas party at Ebenezer Primary School, Ajegunle.

After the party, the team went into the inner parts of the community to distribute food to the people. The women were given food items such as rice and plantain.

One of the beneficiaries, Mrs Ayadi, who came with 5 children appreciated the initiative stating that they did not only have enough to eat for the day, but also for a week.

According to Orode Okpu, the initiator of project, “the idea is to improve the childrens’ health and nutrition by providing them with good food as we believe that by doing this we’re tackling a major problem in the world today which is HUNGER.” She further stated that it was a fantastic way of bringing stakeholders in the food business together for a great cause.
