Nigerian singer and songwriter Ric Hassani has announced that he would be joining the Global Hope Integrated Empowerment Foundation (GHIEF) in October for their “Sponsor a child” campaign.
The singer made the announcement on his Instagram page.
GHIEF is a nonprofit organisation that caters to women and children in Nigeria.
Ric Hassani said he was glad to be joining the team and impacting on the lives of people in the country.
He said the GHIEF team would start their “Sponsor a child” campaign in October and they would be rendering financial support to young children who are out of school.
“This October, I and the GHIEF Team will be visiting some of the communities and kids the organization has reached and has over the years lent support. Their major project is the “sponsor a child” campaign where they give financial support to young kids who can’t afford primary and secondary education.”
The singer opined that being a celebrity did not put him in a superior position, but that of service.
“I always say on Twitter all the time and I do mean this, that; ‘A position of celebrity or of success is not one of superiority, but of service. For we are lifted to lift, not to be above’.”
