A 50yrs Old Widow Who Sells Ogi Receives Cash Aide From A Humanitarian Group by Vocnewsblog(m): 1:50pm On Dec 11, 2018
“In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'.” – Acts 20:35

Mrs. Franca Joseph, a Widow, who hails from Anambra State, lost her husband to high BP related multiple organs failure, 2yrs ago (2016). She had four girls for her late husband; with the first daughter to be 18yrs old and done with her secondary school education, preparing to gain admission into the university. Since the demise of her husband who was the breadwinner of the family, Mrs. Franca has been saddled with the responsibility of providing for herself and the children.

Narrating her ordeal to the International Coordinator in the person of Mr. Gregory Azemobor, of how she struggles to feed the kids and pay for their school fees from the petty business she does. Many at times the family could go hungry for days without food. Although she sells fermented cereal pudding (Ogi), which she hawks from place to place to make ends meets, the income from the business is not sufficient for
their livelihood.

And so, it was a big shock for her today, to receive the Voice of Divine Truth International Outreach team, who visited her and presented the sum of ₦20,000, to support her petty business, so she could be economically empowered to cater for her family.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!

Our target is to empower 1000 Widows with free cash grants, to enable them to start or boost their petty businesses. The goal of this project is to economically empower poor widows to improve their livelihood and be able to cater for their families.

Please note that the videos and pictures of all our charitable activities are not intended to ‘impress or show off’ to anybody, rather it is our practical way of teaching humanity how to love one another.

We are showing you this video of one of our widows’ empowerment activities
1. To create awareness for the plight of hapless widows globally, who are traumatized, oppressed, impoverished and abandoned by government, religious organizations and the society?
2. To practically teach you, that service to humanity is the only true ‘religion’ that God recognizes (James 1:27), and that the religion you practice is meaningless before God if you fail to help the poor and the needy around you.
3. To inspire you to join this campaign to lift poor widows and their families out of poverty. Look around you, there are poor widows struggling for survival. Emulate us by supporting them with ₦20,000 to boost their petty businesses (Look for poor widows in your locality and give them the money DIRECTLY).
4. To inspire religious organizations (especially the church, my constituency), to begin to promote the cause of love and our shared humanity, over and above religious rituals and dogmas.
