Dufil Prima Foods, makers of Indomie Instant Noodles in partnership with the Kokun Foundation Food Bank, a non-governmental organisation, has brought relief and joy to the vulnerable by providing free cartons of Indomie noodles to thousands of less privileged Nigerians.
During a distribution event at the Ojodu area of Lagos State, Indomie contributed cartons of noodles to individuals in the community worst hit by the current economic hardship in the country.
The donation, made in conjunction with the Foundation, underscored the collaborative effort to combat hunger in the region.
Speaking on behalf of Indomie Noodles, Group Corporate Communications and Events Manager, TemitopeAshiwaju, emphasised the brand’s commitment to the well-being of the underprivileged in Nigeria.
He reiterated the firm’s dedication to ensuring that vulnerable individuals in the society have access to at least one meal a day and said that the collaboration is a vital component of the brand’s broader initiative to feed over one million disadvantaged Nigerians across the nation.
Founder, Kokun Foundation, OlukokunAdepeju said the foundation was borne out of the desire to support the very vulnerable and to reduce hunger in communities around Lagos.
“Kokun Food Bank will continue to be a beacon of hope for the needy and put a smile on their faces. In a time like this, we are glad for the joint exercise with Indomie and even more committed to this service to humanity,” Adepeju said.
Moved by the gesture, the beneficiaries expressed gratitude towards Indomie and the Kokun Foundation, thanking them for their care and compassion.
One of the beneficiaries, identified simply as Mrs. Doris, a mother of triplet from the Ojodu community, said the gesture couldn’t have come at a better time.
She expressed gratitude to the organisations for the assistance.
