Support social enterprise project S/East, Nigeria

Dear Donor Family: I have been thinking about you and your family since we received a donation from you through our GlobalGiving fundraising page. We want you to know that we continue to give thanks each day for this gift in support for our on-going humanitarian Services on our social enterprise project S/East, Nigeria

We are thrilled by your magnanimous heart. We want to, in a special way thank you immensely for your kindness and generosity to our project. Thanks for your support which has helped us impact many lives in our community. We do not take your donations for granted at all, it's gratefully appreciated.

Our main objective is to have a social impact rather than make a profit, to tackle social problems, improve communities, people's life chances and the environment. We make money from selling goods and services in the open market, but this money is reinvested back into the business or the local community, to improve the welfare and wellbeing of individuals and communities. We believe that when we profit, society profits.”

Our short-term goals; to raise the money to assist climate change in rural communities and to enable us carry out our objectives by the end of the year.

Empowerment PROGRAM

We are happy to bring to your notice that we have been able to empower since our inception 25 indigent families through seed money to start a business. 5 people benefitted from the empowerment. Each of them received seed money to start a business of their choice. We couldn't do more due to high cost ofin the We bought a miling machine for production. We still need more equipment. We are looking towards #GivingTuesday to raise funds to enable us buy some of the equipment we are lacking in the factory. As the event is approaching, we will remind you and request you to support us in the events.

Thank you for your donation and getting your network to do the same. Without your fraternal solidarity we wouldn't have been able to carry out our humanitarian Services to the community we serve. You made it what it is today. Thanks for being there for us. We appreciate.

One last thing—sharing our project with your friends and family helps us spread the word about our work and continue to grow our community of supporters like you. If you’re willing to share the story of our work with your network, we’d be incredibly grateful.

Gratefully yours,
Samonyemaechi Humanitarian

We bring to you, a follow up on the last report of our humanitarian assistance. We are always happy to share the good news! We are excited to announce that, as part of our GlobalGiving project, which aims to "SUPPORT FOOD PROCESSING & PACKAGING MACHINE IN IMO (54426)" We have recorded tremendous success in our project. Through your support we were able to provide some equipment to aid in the food processing and packaging. We recruited new factory workers, majorly the less privileged in the society whom the foundation has been assisting financially. They will be trained in food processing and packaging and after six months of training and three months of mentorship program, they will be empowered to be self sufficient so as to eke out a living for themselves.

The proceeds from the social enterprise is channeled to helping the less privileged in rural communities and to train students in school.

This is a good opportunity to invest in the lives of our disadvantaged families who are weighed down with disaster by offering them counselling opportunities and giving them vocational skills. Your donation is a trickle down effect to better the lives of these families.

Contributions like yours are continuing to make a difference. They are supporting Sam Onyemaechi humanitarian Foundation's response efforts and delivering crucial help and hope to people in need amid hostilities, constant stress, and difficult conditions away from home.

We are very thankful to you for enabling us to provide essential materials to the community we serve. We cannot but thank you enough.

Essentially, your donation helps release vulnerable families from the grip of devastating poverty, who cannot afford to acquire skills to better their lives and position themselves for a brighter future.

We are grateful for your incredible support during these difficult times! Thank you for standing with us and helping us prove that every life matters!

We want to, in a special way thank you immensely for your kindness and generosity to our project. Thanks for your support which has helped us impact many lives in our community. We do not take your donations for granted at all, it is gratefully appreciated.

Once again, thank you for your generous donation to our cause. We therefore urge you to share our project with your network of family and friends to impact the lives of these youths. Thank you for your donation and getting your network to do the same. Without your fraternal solidarity we wouldn't have marked this event. You made it what it is today. Thanks for being there for us. We appreciate.

With Kindest regards,

Happy New Year from all of us at Sam Onyemaechi Humanitarian Foundation. We want to, in a special way thank you immensely for your kindness and generosity to our project.

On the 21st of October 2022, Sam Onyemaechi Humanitarian Foundation received a grant of $20 000 through GlobalGiving from one of their corporate partners, Corteva, to Fight hunger and insecurity in Southeast, Nigeria.

We cannot but express our sincere heart of appreciation for your generosity towards our cause to, "SUPPORT FOOD PROCESSING & PACKAGING MACHINE IN IMO (54426)".

We made an effort to diversify this grant to make sure that all aspects that affect food insecurity and hunger that bedeviled rural communities are touched. We tried our best to educate the indigents and Less privileged rural communities on the need to be self reliance and to utilize every opportunity to be independent of themselves, to start a small and medium size business so as to eke out a living rather than always depending on already caught fish but find a way to catch the fish themselves.

We channeled this grant into our project causes, we tried to make sure that this grant is used judiciously in all areas to fight hunger and food insecurity and to enhance their living standard.

We procured Equipment for food processing and packaging and this received the greater chunk of the grant. We discovered that buying more equipment for food processing and packaging machines will benefit a lot from the sustainability and financial stability of the organization. Whatever the proceeds, will be channeled towards fighting hunger and food insecurity, not just for a month but all through the years. We used 35% of the grant in providing some of the equipment needed to produce more food so as to fight hunger and food insecurity in the southeast.

Below is how we receive money and how it was used.
