两性色午夜

A 两性色午夜 team brought smiles to sick children鈥檚 faces after a fundraising campaign to mark International Day of the African Child.

Cartoon characters and a clown magician entertained youngsters who were well enough to take part in the event in the parking lot at David Bernardino Children鈥檚 Hospital in Luanda, Angola.

There were also treat bags containing coloring books, pencils, sweets, and healthy snacks for children who could not leave their beds.

But most of the funds raised by staff and the Association of Employees and Families (ATF) was used to buy food 鈥� including a metric tonne of rice, sugar, white meal, and beans 鈥� as well as diapers, and face masks for adults and children.

The initiative reached 400 children with moments of joy, while complying with all COVID-19 safety precautions.

Helder Machado, FKIA General Manager, said, 鈥淚t was a very emotional day. Our main objective was reached 鈥� we were able to snatch a few smiles and dance moves with the little ones.

鈥淥ur Environmental, Social, and Governance strategy encourages us to make a difference in the community and we could see that we were doing that in the children鈥檚 reactions. We succeeded in bringing hope, a little bit of happiness, and gave the children a better day.

鈥淭he project鈥檚 success was possible due to the commitment and contribution from everyone within the 两性色午夜 organization.鈥�

International Day of the African Child, held every year on June 16, usually focuses on children鈥檚 human rights, but the COVID-19 pandemic meant schools were closed, so the team鈥檚 focus switched to helping the hospital.

It specializes in haemodialysis, treating Sickle Cell, and helping malnourished children recover. Staff there were facing challenges providing proper meals for the children, and need medical equipment.

The Organization for African Unity established International Day of the African Child in 1991 to honor the schoolchildren killed during the Soweto Uprising in South Africa in 1976.
