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 Idong family, their bag of rice was donated thanks to Jennifer Bourg Southern Remodeling and Repair this is the 410th bag of rice our program has been able to give away thanks to generous donations.
We met this wonderful family in Nung udoe, a village on the outskirts of Uyo, Nigeria. They were recommended to us by their neighbor. We met Mr Idong, a widower with 4 kids. He lives in a rented apartment with only one of his kids as the rest have all moved to the city. This village is in part cut off from the nearest town and that make sit difficult for the villagers to get things like clean water and they have to rely on the nearest stream for all their water needs.
Mr Idong has a small kitchen that he manages. They use a little kerosene stove to cook in a dimly lit small room. Mr Idong is a farmer and uses the proceeds of his farm to take care of his family. Since Mrs Idong died some years ago, Mr Idong had to move back to the village because of his financial situation.
Mr Idong was so happy to see us because he lives the farthest away from the places we visited and rarely got visitors. He was even happier when we explained who we were and why we came all the way to come visited him. He marveled that strangers that he did not know could come and gift a bag of Rice for free without any strings attached and was very grateful to those who donated the bag of Rice to his family in this difficult times. He prayed for us before we left and I am very sure that Heavenly father will answer his sincere prayers.
