Herbert Wiwge Foundation Supports Isiokpo Community

In support of the government effort to curb the spread of the deadly Coronavirus pandemic, and in making living easier for the masses, a non-governmental organisation, Herbert Onyewumbu Wiwge (HOW) Foundation, has put smiles on the faces of thousands of people in some communities in River State.

The foundation recently extended hands of help in form of foodstuffs and other relief palliatives to several homes, families, and communities in the state, as part of its complementary efforts to alleviate the mounting effects of the lockdown and restrictions measures adopted by the Rivers State Government to checkmate the spread of COVID-19.

The foundation’s activities in the state are basically to alleviate the effects of the lockdown, and by extension, aid the underprivileged people in the state to stay home as the lockdown begins.

The foundation’s CEO, Ms. Antonia Ally, made it known to the people of Isiokpo community and its environs that the NGO’s decision was to spread love and alleviate the effects of the lockdown on the people of Rivers State in general, and to connect with the mission statement of the non-profitable organisation.

According to her, the foundation had been feeding several homes and indigents in Lagos State for weeks and had now decided to extend the novel gesture to the people of Isiokpo community and its environs.

“We believe that majority of those that are alive today have never experienced a pandemic, and to cushion the effects of the lockdown occasioned by COVID-19, the HOW Foundation had made available palliatives to the people of Isokpo and its neighbouring communities in River State,” she said.
