The Rural People

Now that the Sustainable Development Goals have been signed and sealed, it is time for the private sector to deliver. For many businesses it is a difficult task, in large part because the objectives may seem abstract. Supporting a goal to end poverty in all its forms everywhere or to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls can come off more as moral aspirations than measurable deliverables.  

The United Nations marks the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty on 17th of October every year. Ending Poverty and Hunger especially in the rural areas sounds impossible yet attempt-able. Let us attempt with our little efforts/programs/activities and see if miracles do happen because I believe it does.  Join us as we reach out to the poor and hungry rural dwellers within our communities and make an attempt in making their lives better.  Send an email to theruralpeople@gmail.com for contacts and enquiries.

The Rural People made history happen to the children in Gwara in Khana Local Government Rivers State, Nigeria.  These children are orphans as a result of communal crises, epidemics and other reasons that may have been the cause of loosing their parents.  We kept searching for them from one community to another until we realized that they were so much for our budget to carry.
