The unfortunate menace caused by the COVID-19 pandemic is all that bothers the people globally.
Surviving a pandemic is difficult in itself, as food is the most basic thing needed for survival amid a lockdown where daily income is taken away.
Some of us might be fortunate to have some stock up essentials reserved for the lockdown while many unfortunately do not have such privileges.
Organisations around the globe have taken it upon themselves to assist the government in providing for the vulnerable and less privileged during these trying times.
A Non-Governmental Organization, Rosula foundation has launched an initiative to help alleviate the effects of the COVID-19 lockdown on the populace.
The foundation is set to reach out to hundreds of thousands of families across the 36 states of the federation. The gesture is part of efforts to support the government to provide a means of survival for the less privileged and vulnerable during the lockdown.
Over the years the Rosula foundation has been working to alleviate human suffering by providing aid, support and opportunities to the poor and less privileged around the world through Education, Empowerment and Humanitarian Services.
According to the foundation, there is no better exercise for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.
The food bank in Edo state is 100% ready, a visit to the relief camp confirms the state of preparedness of Rosula Foundation in helping to alleviate the plight of the less privileged.The food camp within the last 48 hrs has received a huge delivery of thousands of rice, beans, noddles and so many other essentials for onward distribution to the people of Edo State.
