*Impacts of Ewatomilola Cares Initiative*
The Ewatomilola Cares Initiative, a dedicated non-profit organization committed to improving the lives of the underserved, recently held the “Every Child Matters 2.0” project. As part of this initiative, school supplies were donated to the pupils of St. Paul Nursery & Primary School in Ologede, Ikole Ekiti to ease the burden on families by providing essential educational materials such as uniforms, sandals, notebooks, textbooks, pens, pencils, and markers on February 28, 2024.
In the same way, the Ewatomilola Cares Initiative extended its support to indigent individuals by covering hospital bills for those who could not afford medical care. The initiative also provided to elderly widows, widowers, and orphans, embodying the spirit of compassion and care for the lesson privileged.
The Ewatomilola Cares Initiative has always been inspired by biblical injunctions of James 1:27 which says: “Pure and undefiled religion before God and the father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their troubles”. And the words of Jesus, who said in Matthew 25:35-40: “For I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited me in; I needed clothes, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you looked after me; I was in prison, and you came to visit me.” When asked, “Lord, when did we do all these things for You?” Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for Me.” These words serve as a guiding light for the organization’s charitable work.
