Helpline Foundation, in collaboration with RTA Foundation has empowered less privileged women with a sum of twenty thousand naira cash for over 20 market women in Yagba West Local Government Area of the State.
The programme was flagged off on Wednesday, the 9th August, 2023, at ECWA Primary School in Odo Ere by Hon. Kunle Ola.
According to him, it is a non-profit revolving loan scheme sponsored by these two foundations to provide start-up capital for the needy and vulnerable women so as to ultimately promote their businesses.
Hon Kunle emphasized that the beneficiaries should make judicious use of the money for the purpose which it was meant for. While praying for its profitability, he urged them not to use the money for luxuries things that will not benefit them.
Responding, the representatives and Cluster leaders Mrs Fatola and Madam Awarun, thanked the sponsors of the scheme, Dr. Jumai Ahmadu and Dr. Ramatu Tijani Aliyu, for the gesture and promised to make judicious use of the loan, whilst assuring that their team will never disappoint the foundations.
