COVID-19 EMERGENCY SUPPORT TO MEMBERS OF THE OVIE BRUME FOUNDATION YOUTH CENTRE, LAGOS
INTRODUCTION
The economic uncertainties, and disruptions that have resulted from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic come at a significant cost to the global economy, in addition to its immediate impact on health outcomes and, tragically, on lives. During the first few months of the outbreak, the government focused on managing the spread of the disease through stringent transmission control measures. The lock-down led to the suspension of all forms of work for weeks hence, vulnerable and low-income families faced the risk of penury, starvation, and deprivation. With very little or no savings and poor social security, families were having fewer meals, borrowing money, and defying the safety guidelines and threat of police in order to go out and work.
Against this background, the Ovie Brume Foundation with support from the AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) COVID-19 Emergency Support Fund provided food relief materials to One Hundred anf fourty (140) families and sanitary towels to two hundred (200) girls within the poor communities in Eti-Osa LGA, whose children are members/beneficiaries of the Foundations’ Youth Center.
