HABARI DAILY I Kampala, Uganda I PostBank Uganda has stretched out its generous hand to Teresa Ministries with an Early Easter Package that will cater for vulnerable children.
The bank donated food items and other necessities to the home, which is located in Najjanankumbi, along Entebbe Road. The donated items included baby formula, diapers, milk, sugar, porridge, soap, rice, among other basics.
Ms. Priscilla Akora, PostBank Uganda’s Head of Marketing and Communications, said that the donation was in recognition of Teresa Ministries’ humanitarian work, which has impacted the lives of tens of children.
Teresa Ministries, which is a non-profit organization, provides shelter and support to vulnerable children, particularly those affected by HIV/AIDS and abject poverty from surrounding communities.
Ms Akora additionally said that their good will gesture in recognition of the upcoming Easter Holiday.
She said: “This season upholds the spirit of bringing communities together as they celebrate the resurrection of Christ.”
She commended Teresa Ministries for the exceptional work they are doing in the community by providing shelter, food, education, and spiritual nourishment for the children who have been abandoned by their families.
She pointed out that children are the future of every society, who should be cherished and catered for.
“Teresa Ministries’ work is a true reflection of the faith and love of God. At PostBank, we are glad to create a positive impact on our communities and collaborate with partners with whom our values align.”
Opining that the gesture was part of the bank’s corporate social agenda under the humanitarian support pillar, Ms Akora called upon everyone who can to join the great cause to do so, so that the vulnerable children would access a healthier and better life.
Father Raymond, the Patron and founder of Teresa Ministries said that the food supplies, as well as the other items donated, will go a long way in supporting the children in this home.
He showed gratitude for the items that were donated and appreciated PostBank for the thoughtful gesture and for reaching out during the holy season.
