MRS FAITH EMPOWERMENT FUND
Empowering women and enhancing their social, economic, and health status is crucial for sustainable development. As part of NEOTERIC Group’s Corporate Social Responsibility, we revisited Mrs. Okeikwue’s carpentry workshop, equipping her with an electric cutting machine and an electric sawing machine to support her daily business operations.
Previously, her workshop lacked essential modern tools, making these machines a vital addition. We were delighted to meet Miss Mariam, Mrs. Okeikwue’s female apprentice, who expressed deep gratitude. “Empowerment means encouraging and developing skills for self-sufficiency, reducing the need for future charity,” Mariam shared, inspired by Mrs. Okeikwue to pursue carpentry.
Mrs. Okeikwue, overwhelmed with gratitude, said, “Thank you for remembering me. To the directors, may God bless you abundantly. Words can’t express how I feel.” Her joy underscored the impact of this support on her business and community.
