Foundation Empowers 100 Market Women, Herdsmen In Kwara
A group, Isaac Adewale Olorundare Foundation (IAOF), yesterday, donated livestock drugs and cash to no fewer than 100 market women and herdsmen in Erin-Ile, Oyun Local Government Area of Kwara State.
The Sole Financier of the foundation, Mr Isaac Olorundare, said the gesture was aimed at improving the trading activities and living standard of the beneficiaries.
Olorundare, represented by the Coordinator of the foundation, Mr Muyideen Raji, also said the donation was a fulfillment of his passion toward assisting the less privileged in society.
“It’s part of our social responsibilities and aimed at putting smiles in the faces of our people, especially the less privileged,” he said.
He promised that the empowerment initiative would be a continuous exercise and would also be expanded to cater for more beneficiaries.
Olorundare called on well meaning individuals in the state to support government in its effort to transform the state, saying government had demonstrated its sincerity toward industrialising the state.
“This programme will continue to be a regular exercise with the aim of alleviating the suffering of the masses.
“It’s our own little way of complementing government’s efforts and contributing to the socio-economic development of the state.
“The state has experienced dramatic and positive transformations, especially in industrialisation, job creation, road construction/rehabilitation, provision of qualitative education, health facilities and empowerment, among others,” he further said.
