UBA Foundation has continued its nationwide philanthropic efforts, reaching beneficiaries in orphanages and Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps across Nigeria. The foundation’s outreach touched communities in Abia, Ebonyi, Lagos, Oyo, Edo, Akwa Ibom, Kogi, Niger, Borno, Taraba, Kebbi, and Jigawa. Some of the institutions benefiting include the Daughter of Mercy Mother of Mary Orphanage Home (Abia), Trinitarian Foundation for Orphans and the Helpless (Ebonyi), Destitute Home Okobaba (Lagos), Oyiza Orphanage and Foster Foundation (Oyo), Itsoghena Orphanage Home (Edo), Enoima Children Home (Akwa Ibom), and UMCN Orphanage Home (Taraba).
During a visit to the Destitute Home Okobaba in Lagos, UBA Foundation’s Managing Director/CEO, Bola Atta, distributed non-perishable food items and school materials to both children and adults. Speaking on the foundation’s mission, Atta highlighted that their programs are designed to create lasting impact by reaching people in all areas, regardless of location or economic barriers.
“At UBA Foundation, we believe that true development begins with compassion and action,” Atta said. “Through our various Food Bank and Giving Back initiatives, we are not only providing nourishment and essential support but also restoring hope and creating pathways for children and families to learn, grow, and thrive. This is our commitment to Africa: to show up consistently, act responsibly, and leave no community behind.”
She further emphasized that the foundation’s interventions aim to equip beneficiaries with essential tools and nourishment required for cognitive development and physical well-being, reinforcing UBA Foundation’s commitment to holistic community development across Nigeria.
I wonder if this foundation should focus more on long-term solutions instead of just short-term aid. What do you think?
I wonder if UBA Foundations efforts are sustainable or just a temporary solution for orphanages and IDP camps. Any thoughts?
Im not sure about this. Shouldnt we focus on helping families stay together instead of just providing temporary support to orphanages and IDP camps?
Do you think more companies should follow UBA Foundations example and support orphanages and IDP camps? Lets discuss!
Wow, its great that UBA Foundation is helping orphanages and IDP camps. But shouldnt the government be doing more too?
Im not convinced that charity should focus on orphanages and IDP camps exclusively. What about other marginalized groups?
I wonder if these outreach programs truly make a lasting impact on the lives of those in orphanages and IDP camps.
Shouldnt the focus be on sustainable solutions rather than just temporary aid? Lets discuss!
I wonder if UBA Foundation could partner with local NGOs for more sustainable impact in communities. What do you all think?
