Learn how you can be apart of helping people who are in need with our A Thrifty Mom Bag of Rice Campaign. In 2016 we started helping a young man named Ikechukwu from Nigeria. Summer of 2019 we were able to visit his family in Aba, Nigeria. While there we saw widespread poverty and lack of basic needs. We would like to invite you to help meet one of those basic needs, by providing Nigerian families with rice. This gift will feed a large family for a few months, or a single person a year. It also reminds them they are loved, and brings most of them to tears… as a full bag of rice is one of the most generous gifts they will ever receive. You can also read about other families we have been able to bless here.

The Following story is about the Nseobong family, their bag of rice was donated thanks to Barb Przybylski and Linda Honsvick this is the 335th bag of rice our program has been able to give away thanks to generous donations.
We met this family in Oruk Anam, a village on the outskirts of Uyo, Nigeria. Theyw ere introduced to us by their village chief. The Nseobongs live with their 3 kids in a one bedroom mudhouse with no plumbing or electricity. This village does not have a portable water source and use a local stream or collect rainwater for any water needs they might have
The Nseobongs cook at the back of their house in a kitchen made with sticks and palm fonds. They use firewood because it is the cheapest and most affordable fuel source. Mr Nseobong rides a bike for commercial purposes and ferries people around for an agreed fare this is a job that takes him away for long hours with little pay. Mrs Nseobong is a farmer and uses the back of their house to cultivate a little vegetable farm which she sells at a local market.
The Nseobongs were happy to meet us and they welcomed us to their home. They were grateful and happy with their gift and expressed their thanks to those who donated to their family. Families like this can no longer afford a bag of Rice and instead buy in cups at a time when money allows it. They are aware and grateful for the opportunity to own a bag of Rice in this economy.
