In the spirit of giving and community support, QNET, a global lifestyle and wellness company, has once again demonstrated its commitment to positively impacting lives through a series of donations across Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Ghana, and Liberia. These initiatives, spearheaded by the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) arm, RYTHM Foundation, align with its core philosophy of “Raise Yourself To Help Mankind” (RYTHM).
Partnering for Nutrition and Education in Nigeria
QNET has also partnered with the Lagos Food Bank Initiative (LFBI), a non-profit organization dedicated to nutrition and hunger relief, to provide nutritious food and gifts to 1,000 vulnerable children in Makoko, Lagos. Supported by QNET’s legal partner, Transblue Limited, this project forms part of LFBI’s Education Enhancement Intervention for Food Insecure Students (EDUFOOD) program. This initiative addresses malnutrition and food insecurity among underserved students by providing healthy meals and essential educational resources.
Biram Fall, QNET’s Regional Manager for Sub-Saharan Africa, highlighted the importance of this initiative: “Guided by our principle – Raise Yourself To Help Mankind (RYTHM), we believe that education and good health for children are the cornerstones of a thriving society. Partnering with LFBI allows us to make a tangible impact on vulnerable children’s lives, reflecting our mission to empower youths and improve communities.”
Akeem Ajisafe, Managing Director of Transblue Limited, added: “This collaboration not only addresses food insecurity but also brings joy to young hearts, allowing them to truly experience the spirit of Christmas. Together, we are fostering hope, joy, and a brighter future for all.”
Michael Sunbola, Executive Director of LFBI, expressed gratitude for the partnership: “QNET’s support empowers us to reach even more children during this season of celebration, improving their health and unlocking their potential. Together, we are building a foundation for a brighter future.”
Touching Lives in Sierra Leone
QNET made a significant contribution to the Variety Children and Family Services in Freetown. The donation included food essentials like rice, oil, noodles, drinks, and toiletries to support orphans under the care of the organization. The facility’s social worker, Mohammed David Sesay, expressed deep gratitude, emphasizing the impact of the gesture in brightening the lives of vulnerable children during the festive season.
Bringing Joy to Ghana
Similarly, QNET extended its benevolence to the Potter’s Village Orphanage in Dodowa, near Accra. The donation consisted of food supplies and personal care items. Nana Ama Adu Owusu, the director of the orphanage, praised QNET’s efforts, highlighting the collective responsibility of nurturing the future generation and expressing heartfelt appreciation for the smiles the donation brought to the children.
Empowering the Blind in Liberia
In Monrovia, Liberia, QNET visited the Liberia Christian Association of the Blind School, bearing gifts of food and essentials. The program coordinator, Jacob Joe, expressed profound gratitude, describing the act as a display of genuine care and goodwill. This initiative underscores QNET’s dedication to supporting underserved communities and enriching the lives of those with disabilities.
A Legacy of Giving Back
Beyond these recent efforts, QNET has a longstanding history of impactful CSR initiatives across Africa. From supporting educational foundations to assisting hospitals and government institutions, the company remains a beacon of hope for many, embodying the spirit of ‘together we rise’ through its commitment to community upliftment.
Its involvement in global sports sponsorships and partnerships further reinforces its commitment to excellence and community enrichment.
As the festive season brings people together, QNET’s actions serve as a reminder of the transformative power of compassion and corporate responsibility. Through its RYTHM Foundation, the company continues to make a meaningful difference, one community at a time.
