She noted that one of the objectives of the Foundation was the provision of support to the most vulnerable segment of the society across the country.

It also makes us happy that we are able to do something to touch the lives of others in a highly interdependent world” adding that the Foundation was working on other projects that would impact various segments across the country.
The excited beneficiaries sang and danced at the event to show their joy and appreciation to Globacom while some of them thanked the company for the laudable gesture and prayed more blessings for the company.
One of the beneficiaries, Christina Itoro, an Akwa Ibom indigene, a POS operator within the community, expressed happiness after seeing the content of the package. “When I opened the carton and saw the content, I was so excited. May God bless the company and the staff,” she enthused.
