Christmas Cheer 2015

Happy new month to you all!!!

We do hope the first hurdle of the year was a success for everyone. If you didn’t accomplish most of your tasks, don’t miss a heartbeat over it, there’s plenty of time to dive into that assignment and get it done. Just do not be lazy about it.

 

On the 28th of December 2015, the Foundation carried out its Annual Christmas Cheer Outreach. As we all know that it was a season of joy and sharing, we played our part in giving out hampers to less privileged families that could not afford the joys of the season.

Each hamper contained a bag of rice, tubers of yam, oil, tomato puree, pasta, soda drinks, toilet paper, beverage, noodles, detergent and Ankara material. Shoes and clothes were also distributed according to sizes.

 

Fifty families were catered for that day. We appreciate all our Sponsors, Volunteers and friends who came out to help that day. God bless you all.

See the testimonial pictures.

Women Empowerment Series (WES)

Hey awesome folks,
We wont even bother starting with the excuses, I’m pretty sure you’re tired of reading them. All the same we sincerely apologize for the prolonged absence, we hope to become more constant.

 Moving on to the business of this post, we are here with wonderful news. GENO Hope Alive Foundation is excited to inform you of the debut of a maiden edition of its new serial Project tagged “The GENO Woman”
The theme is Women Empowerment Series (WES)

The “GENO Woman” is who we dream to see every woman become. One who can cater for her family conveniently and sufficiently, who is empowered and independent. She is a woman of virtue, dignity and substance.
WES proposes to empower, inspire and reach out to a group of women monthly as we encourage, groom and train them to acquire various skills that will make them financially independent while teaching them business ethics.
The main achievement of WES is to sponsor one woman from every event held per month to learn a skill under a proficient body till the stage of maturity.

Watch this space for more information on the Project like dates, pictures, videos, how you can be a part of it and of course, testimonies of participants.

Giving out…

Hello people, Please pardon our absence, it’s been crazy busy around here with lots of shuffling and readjustment but we promise to try and publish posts as regularly as we can… So, earlier this week, on behalf of the Foundation, Olayinka Odumosu gave out food items to some aged folks in a home.  We encourage you to create the habit of giving in your community.  It could range from clothing items to footwear to foodstuff, allow them to benefit from your resources… Giving never had its disadvantage, it always brings joy not to just receiver but the giver as well… Please share and subscribe… Thank you…

Annual Christmas Cheer 2014

Hello people,

It’s a bright morning at this part of the World, we wish you brightness wherever you are reading this post.

It’s about time we fed your eyes with pictures from the recently concluded Annual Christmas Cheer that took place on the 24^th of December 2014. It was a refreshing and invigorating event as over 30 women went home with basket filled with goodies for their families to celebrate the Christmas with.

We believe that Christmas is a season of joy and no one should be left out of the happy celebration of the Birth of Christ, it is because of this belief that we try to affect and influence happiness in the lives of those who cannot afford the luxury of celebrating the season.

One of our Trustees, Pastor (Mrs) Suoton Elihai anchored the event. She informed the attendants of the reason for the Season and shared with them the love of Christ for all as she also led them in prayer. At the end of the pep talk, each woman was called to carry her own goodie basket containing a small bag of rice, tubers of yam, carton of noodles, gallon of oil, pasta, pack of toilet roll, Ankara (the native material for sewing clothes), biscuits and fruit drinks for her children.

We are extremely grateful and thankful to Dangote, Dufil Prima Foods, The Market Research Consultancy and every Individual who supported the event through financial means.

Join us again at the next event. Till then, be fruitful and empowering…

Please do not forget to share using the buttons available. Thank you.

Annual Back to School Campaign 2014

This year’s Annual Back to School Campaign took place in the month of November, 2014. Approaching the event with a new twist, we decided to visit the schools whose students were to be presented with school kits. 

Prior to the selected days of the Campaign, the Project Coordinator of the Foundation screened several schools to pick out children who were eligible for the school kits in terms of those who needed them, those who didn’t have alternatives as there were some of them that put their books in paper bags to go to school and some others who didn’t even have books.

The day each school was visited, the Founder of GHAF, Mrs EnoAbasi Unogu, addressed the children, telling them the purpose of the Foundation, offering encouragement, words of support and advise to them. She also announced the Foundation’s intention on sponsoring the kid who performed best academically  to the level of achieving a higher education.

The schools visited were :

Community Senior Grammar School, Surulere, Lagos.

Estate Baptist Primary School, Surulere, Lagos.

Community Junior Grammar School, Surulere, Lagos.

Ijero Baptist Primary School, Costain, Lagos.

The content of the school kit were note books, writing materials, school bag and rain coats. We are grateful to the Sponsors of the Campaign- MTN, Etisalat, The Market Research Consultancy and other Individuals who donated in funds and kind to the success of the event. May the good Lord bless and reward you…
