Every year the foundation sets out a day to formally empower the aged and the widowed. Although philanthropy is second nature to Blessing Ebigiesson, she believes that hosting the annual Widows Support Event on a day such as Febuary 14, sends a powerful message about the need to show love to those whom the society tends to abandom and sometimes stigmatized.
The unique aspect of the 2017 edition of the programme, was not just the presentation of material and financial support to widows, on that day, awards of recognition and merits were presented to notable Nigerians such as the beloved Apostle Prof. Johnson Suleman, founder/president of Omega Fire Miracle International and Hon. Peter Akpatanson representing Akoko Edo local government of Edo State at the National House of Representative, Abuja.
