MMF Renovates Treasure of Love Orphanage Roof, Fulfilling a Long-standing Promise
Roof Renovation at Treasure of Love Orphanage
In line with our commitment to safeguarding and nurturing children’s development, the Murtala Muhammed Foundation has successfully renovated the inner roof of the Treasure of Love Orphanage Home. This significant upgrade fulfils our promise to provide a secure environment, a commitment we made when we began our humanitarian support for the orphanage 12 years ago. Completed earlier this month, the renovation offers the children a safer and more comfortable living space. This roofing project is just one facet of MMF’s continued support, including physiotherapy, amenities, and various child support initiatives.
Prioritising Safety Amidst the Cholera Crisis
In response to the recent cholera outbreak across Nigerian states, the Murtala Muhammed Foundation has taken proactive measures to advocate for best practices in health and hygiene. Through our social media platforms, we launched a comprehensive campaign featuring infographics and textual content to educate the public on preventing cholera. Our campaign highlighted crucial practices such as proper hygiene, safe water consumption, and effective preventive measures, ensuring the information was clear and accessible. Our goal was to empower individuals with the knowledge needed to protect themselves and their communities from the outbreak.
Wishing Our Scholars a Joyous Holiday Season!
The Murtala Muhammed Foundation extends its warmest holiday wishes to our scholars from Federal Government College Yola and Federal Government College Ganye. As they embark on their well-deserved break, we are pleased to report that all scholars, including those travelling from Federal Government College Maiduguri to Dapchi in Yobe State, have been safely transported to their destinations. We hope our scholars enjoy a restful and enjoyable holiday as they prepare for the upcoming term.
