A human rights organisation, Stand For Humanity Foundation said it has facilitated the sum of N2m through an online fund raising advocacy for a visually impaired woman, Alice Audu, who hailed from Benue State but lives in Imo State, to improve her business.
The founder of the organisation, Chidiebube Okeoma, in a statement in Owerri, Imo State, on Monday, said that the foundation was grateful to Nigerians of good conscience within and outside the country for assisting the foundation to lift the vulnerable woman.
Okeoma, disclosed that the foundation had championed an online fund raising advocacy for the woman to enable them buy her a baking oven valued N175,000 but to the glory of God the donations had exceeded N2m with little fraction.
Okeoma, a journalist and human rights activist disclosed that the organization received the donations through the lady’s First Bank account detail which she is the only person that has access to it, stating that the reason is to ensure transparency and to genuinely lift her out of poverty.
He said that the foundation had fixed N1m out of the total sum for the woman in a Unity Bank account they opened for her after buying her the baking oven, renewed her house rent in advance, bought her a washing machine, food stuff that would last for months for her, paid for medical investigations and bought her the prescribed drugs, including business equipment and lots more.
The statement read in parts “we are happy to announce that the online fund raising advocacy we championed for our visually impaired sister, Alice Audu, who hails from Benue State but lives in Akabo in the Ikeduru Local Government Area of Imo State has exceeded N2m with little figure as we speak.
“This is a woman who told us that she had only N200 the day we visited her at her residence at Akabo in Imo State. We were moved by her plight and we made the first donation of N20, 000 into her account and vigorously campaigned for her welfare and today she is N2m richer courtesy of compassionate Nigerians from within and outside the country.
“Already we have helped her fixed N1m out of the total money in a Unity Bank account we assisted her opened last week in Owerri.
‘’Outside that, we have renewed her house rent in advance, bought her a washing machine as she requested, bought her a baking oven for her business, bought her food stuff that would last for months for her and her 13- Year- old daughter, bought her, her business equipments and little cash left for her upkeep.
“We did all this for her because we observed that some people wanted to exploit her because of condition when the donations became huge and we waded in immediately and transparently guided her all through.
“We also took her for a thanksgiving at The Redeemed Christian church of God at Orji in Owerri, knowing fully well that it was God who did all this for her. We were simply but vessels God used in lifting her. She has been visually impaired for 21 out of her 34 years of existence and life had been terrible for her before God brought us her path”, the statement read.
