Wafrica: A sponsor of steem medical project in Nigeria

in wafrica •  7 years ago 

Since the @wafrica community set out on its selfless mission to reward the passion of Africans who have harnessed the steem blockchain to make positive impact on the system by creating good contents and promoting steemit community,its been a beautiful journey so far and it's a privileged for me to be part of this beautiful community.

wafrica has supported lots of steem based projects, aside from massive curation project that has given lots of steemians hope and reasons not to give up on steemit, Charity projects are not excluded in this revolution.

Steem medical day

Steem medical day is a charity event that was organised by @steemhelpinghand team, to give out medical aid to a Slum community in Lagos Nigeria.

Agboyi-Ketu oriodo, a community under Agboyi-Ketu Local Council Development Area of Lagos State, surrounded by blackish dirty water without a link bridge, this Community is quite close to the hustling, and modernized areas in Lagos yet so far from urbanization.

After a survey was done in this community, we realised this community lacked, good medical care, access to good road, pipe borne water and a whole lot of social amenities, guess what?? this people fish, bath, defecate and cook with this same water!! yeah you read that right!

Imagine a community surrounded by water without a linked bridge this automatically shuts them out from the world around them, how will the aid come when there is no road to gain access, of course you can imagine what the major occupation of such a riverine area will be!!

Well After the survey and deliberations, On what should be the first bold step to support this community with, well it is said that health is wealth right? good medications and good water is a bold step, but as it was said earlier there is no road to link us through, they get out of the community with canoes, so getting in materials to make them a pipe borne water will be quite a hard nut to crack, well it isn't impossible, but we decided to kickoff with the Medical support, which we made a post about here

This is really great, I love what @wafrica and the team behind it is doing, taking love outside the steem blockchain

This is amazing and laudable. Thanks @suryogi and @wafrica for supporting this amazing project. I am so happy seeing you tackling societal problems without any limitations. I strongly believe that forever in the minds of those you helped, they will never stop raining blessings on you. I pray you soar higher and higher in all you do.

When I first learn of this project, it touched the very atom that makes up myself. Reading about it success is like music to my soul. Thank you the @steemhelpinghands team for getting out there to reach to those who really needs help. Together, we'll make history and touch lives.

Thank you so much @lordJames @wafrica got the 🔥 let's keep it burning

@phunke thanks for sharing this with @awafrica!

@phunke got after me, she chased me down and said LOOK AT THIS!
And I did..
She is now the person I trust most for research and when I need to understand things better, I usually go to her with the most technical of subjects... one of the smartest people I've met on STEEM.

I am very proud to support @steemhelpinghand !

Great job you are doing Jeff

Oh yes I did chase after you 😀😀 because for steemit helping hands there is really not much a group of minnows can achieve without supports and sponsorship.
Thank you so much @surfyogi I feel flattered 😊😊

Steemit helping hands appreciates your support.

You are the most amazing and down to earth person I have come across on steemit.

It is a great hope to improve the lives of every living being with #wafrica. Never cease to pass by for the goodies

Places like this really exist and it is heart breaking to see people still living in this kind of places. When I go for outreaches, my heart weep for them. I'm glad when I see people reach out to them.

Thanks for being an agent of change @Phunke.
Thanks @Surfyogi for always supporting good cause like this. You will be greatly rewarded.

This is great!!!
Keep up the work @wafrica
