Telecommunication services provider, Airtel Nigeria has called on Nigerians to participate in the 4th edition of its flagship Touching Lives programme by nominating causes and persons who require help.
The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Airtel Nigeria, Mr. Segun Ogunsanya, made the announcement at a press conference held in Lagos to announce the kick-off of Season 4 of the programme.
On the nomination procedure of the programme, Ogunsanya simply said the nomination process is simple adding that, “Once you nominate an individual or cause, our team will review and assess the situation and determine if a follow-up visit will be required.
“You can nominate individuals or projects in your communities by dialling 367 or by sending an SMS to the Shortcode, 367. Also mail can be sent to touchinglives@ng.airtel.com,” he added.
Airtel Touching Lives, according him seeks to promote the culture of giving amongst Nigerians, uplift the downtrodden and offer useful support to the less privileged people across the country.
He noted that since the commencement of the programme in 2015, Airtel has provided practical help for thousands of Nigerians as well as communities and groups.
“It’s about teaching people a culture where the strong supports the weak and creating a door for people to work through. 10 NGOs of 190 people, 15 communities of 150 and 9 communities of 2500 people among others have been lifted since this initiative took off.”
He said the company was committed to helping the less privileged in the society in line with its vision of creating empowerment opportunities and making life better for Nigerians.
“Together, we all can make our society a better place if we join hands and collaborate to uplift the downtrodden around us.
