IN a commendable display of compassion and dedication to community development, the Charity and Gender Community Development Service (CDS) group of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) recently organised a successful outreach programme at the popular Koka Junction in Asaba.
The Charity and Gender CDS Group is committed to uplifting vulnerable communities through charitable initiatives and addressing gender-related challenges. This latest outreach targeted the less-privileged, with Koka axis of Asaba chosen as the starting point..
The event proved a resounding success, providing food and care to 220 individuals, including children and adults. This effort aligns closely with the NYSC’s mission of encouraging corps members to contribute meaningfully to the development of their host communities.
The people at Koka warmly welcomed the initiative, which also received robust support from prominent dignitaries in Delta State. Their contributions played a vital role in the programme’s success, reinforcing the belief that collective effort is essential for meaningful change.
This outreach underscores the vital role of young people in nation-building and the significance of collaboration in fostering development at the grassroots level. The Charity and Gender CDS group plans to extend its reach, aiming to create a lasting and far-reaching impact across Delta State and beyond.
