The sixth annual Emajjin Children’s Foundation gala was held on November 3, 2019 at the Brighton Convention & Event Centre in Toronto, ON.
There are many Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) around the world that are working fervently to change the line of collimation that millions of disadvantaged children in our global village are currently on.. They intercede by providing them with items that may seem small but are in fact enormous: shoes for walking to school; toothbrushes for oral health; precious clean water for drinking and washing hands or, simply a nutritious breakfast or lunch. Books to stir the imagination and impart knowledge are items that are out of reach for most. These NPOs evdeavor to be purveyers of opportunity. They strive to give hope, to break that devastating cycle of poverty that engulfs millions of children around the world.
Every year, Emajjin chooses a NPO that changes children’s lives. This year, for the first time, we chose two Canadian charities that work passionately to support disadvantaged youngsters in our global village. Dekpor School Development Organisation (DSDO) and Eyrie For The Children Foundation..
DSDO does its work in Dekpor, Ghana and Eyrie For The Children Foundation is based in Nepal. Both NPOs operate in the hope to be interveners or game-changers in their respective realms.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, with funds raised this year, we are proud to be able to provide $40,000 to DSDO for infrastructure, health (Update: Funds from Emajjin provides Dental & Vision care to the students of Dekpor) and education projects in Dekpor.
In addition, $5000 was given to Eyrie For The Children Foundation to support an orphanage for boys in Nepal. This grant is the first half of a two-year, $10,000 commitment to the Foundation.
There is no doubt that Emajjin Children’s Foundation will make a profound impact in Dekpor. You are helping underprivileged children who are desperately in need and who will appreciate all of the ways you enrich their lives! A heartfelt thank you for all you’ve accomplished and your beautiful generosity!"
We enjoyed very much your gala. We salute you and your team for working so hard in helping those underprivileged children around the world.
Your donation is also an encouragement to our Foundation’s effort and passion. Again, on behalf of these Nepalese orphans, thank you very much."
