A wise man once said “The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the greatest intention”. That man was Kahlil Gibran.
IBD Foundation, a non-governmental organization (NGO) known for its countless act of kindness, has once again stepped up the game in the fight against coronavirus pandemic. Aside putting in place preventive measures for employees of the group which include IBDIMPEX and IBD Hotels, the hospitality arm of the group, the foundation has also extended its hand of fellowship to communities and towns within the Ilaro and Oja-Odan axis of Ogun State.
IBD Foundation which is the vision of Ibrahim Dende, the highly successful businessman behind the flourishing IBD Group, has over the last few years become a symbol of hope to hundreds of thousands particularly in the Yewa axis of the gateway state.
The foundation which has continued to wax stronger under the leadership of Omolara Dende, the wife of the celebrity businessman, has joined the train of compassionate helpers offering assistance in the season of the pandemic rocking the globe.
Recently, IBD Foundation donated 200 bags of rice and 70 kegs of groundnut oil to communities and towns in Ilaro and Oja-Odan axis. The philanthropic gesture, we gathered, was carried out through the religious bodies in the communities to ensure effective distribution of the relief packages.
That is not all. Other beneficiaries of the philanthropic drive include all staff of IBDIMPEX and IBDHOTELS.
Established a few years ago solely to lift humanity, IBD Foundation has built a strong reputation for philanthropy and genuine community development initiatives by offering scholarships to hundreds of indigent students, including the provision of empowerment schemes for hundreds of disadvantaged people particularly in Ogun West.
