As part of the activities marking the 2024 Press Week, the Ondo State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) extended a hand of compassion to children from an orphanage home. The initiative underscores the union’s commitment to community development and its recognition of the less privileged as an integral part of society.
Leading the visit was the Secretary of the NUJ Ondo State Council, Mr. Mechack Olaoluwa, who emphasized the importance of giving back to the community. The visit, which took place yesterday, saw the NUJ team engaging with the children, providing essential items, and sharing moments of joy with them. This gesture aligns with the union’s dedication to social responsibility beyond its primary role of journalism.
The event was filled with heartfelt moments as the children expressed gratitude for the attention and support from the NUJ. Mr. Olaoluwa highlighted that the Press Week celebration was not only about journalists but also about uplifting the community and giving hope to those in need. “We believe that our contributions, no matter how little, can make a big difference in the lives of these children,” he said.
The 2024 Press Week continues to reflect the NUJ’s commitment to blending professional excellence with community impact. This visit is a testament to the union’s efforts to build a more compassionate and inclusive society, leaving a lasting impact on the beneficiaries and inspiring others to follow suit.
