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 Abasi family. Their bag of rice was donated thanks to TERRY SIMMONS , and this is the 556th bag of rice our program has been able to give away thanks to generous donations.
As we were driving in Mbiaobong Itam we cited an uncompleted building and we saw a small child in front of the building. We drove into the compound and the child welcomed us, the child went to call the parent and the mother came out and she welcomed us. We told her our purpose of visiting and she was excited, she thought it was the government who sent us and she asked if it was the federal government or state government because it is only during elections they come to share rice with them and they don’t usually give them a bag of rice that it is strange when we told her it was donated to her by someone she shouted and danced round her compound and she sang in her local dialect and she was shocked that someone who is it not related to them can give them a bag of rice, she was happy. The family is blessed with 6 kids and they are all out of school. The family stay in an uncompleted building which is not theirs, the house is without a window and any dangerous animal can enter the house easily.
The family cooks with firewood and is unable to afford cooking gas because of the price it is sold in the market. Using firewood is harmful to the health but the family do not have a substitute for it because there is no money to afford a cooking gas. Mrs. Rose is unemployed and she is a widow, her husband died and it has been hard to fend for the family. But Mrs. Rose does farm for people so that she can get what the family will eat. She has interest in learning tailoring but she is not armed with the money to learn.
The family was ecstatic, and their spirits were elevated as they gave thanks to God and prayed for the donor. They claimed that God will reward the donor’s work and that everything he touches will thrive. Even though the family was in pain and starving, they were smiling and delighted as we departed.
