Once again in fulfilling its paramount objective of helping the poor and the needy, our Community Just like it did in 2008 and 2012 assisting the leprosy patients in Edo State, has carried out a proposal to help the Ossiomo-Ogan leprosy Home this year.
Sequel to the executive meeting of December 2014 it was proposed that the Community should at least, make some moves this year to fulfil our obligations as a helping organization. In this direction, the President called the Medical director of the Leprosy home during the Executive meeting. In the course of their discussion, the President asked him about the pressing needs of his patients.
The Zonal Medical director, Dr Igbinigie told the president that the Government has commenced work on the renovation of the Home, but they needed Beds, Mattresses, Pillows and Bed Sheets, which are essential materials the patients would require.
The Executive also considered the inclusion of other basic necessities like food items (Bags of Rice), used clothes, Detergents and disinfectants like Soaps and Dettol. An estimate of about €3000.00 was planned for the mission.
The process of supplying these articles was started late May 2015 and was delivered in the middle of June.
It was great to see the project delivered on the 24th of June, 2015 (at about 15:00 pm). The president, Mr L. Eguavoen and some of our representatives in Nigeria delivered the items to the Home.
Upon his return, President Eguavoen told the house, that the patients were very grateful for our generosity. He informed members, that the little we were able to provide, to his reckoning, would be greatly valued by those patients who are in dire need of such relief. The patients sang and danced, to the glory of our father almighty, as God loves a cheerful giver.
We remain grateful to our members and donors who made this project a reality. We are also grateful to God who gave us the strength to carry out this project.
