A few weeks ago, we told you about the amazing work being done to help children in need of prosthetics via the STANBIC initiative, “together for a limb”.
In addition to the much-needed prosthetics, the kids also received an Educational Trust Fund of N1.5 million each!
After the 3km charity walk in Abuja which was attended by hundreds of people, the children were presented with their trust fund cheques by First Lady of Zamfara, Hajiya Asmau Yari, who represented the First lady of Nigeria.
Here is Fatima, who was born with a congenital deformity which required the amputation of her leg.
Little Aliyu’s foot was crushed by a keke driver, and now he has a comfortable prosthetic and the promise of an amazing education.
Here is a cross section of some of the children the initiative has been able to help.
