Tropical General Investment (TGI) Group, a leading global conglomerate, through its philanthropic arm, TGI Cares Foundation, has reinforced its commitment to supporting vulnerable communities by donating food items and essential supplies to indigent citizens in Ebute Metta, Lagos recently.

The TGI Cares Foundation, whose objectives promote food security by supporting appropriate education, championing social interventions, and providing relief in times of disaster, partnered with FoodClique Support Initiative, a leading NGO dedicated to eradicating hunger, for the outreach to cushion the worrying effects of the current economic hardships on Nigerians.

TGI Group’s Head of Corporate Communications, Rafiat Gawat stated, “We recognize the profound impact of hunger on our communities, particularly in view of the cost of living crisis ravaging the world currently. Our commitment is unwavering in providing meaningful support to those at risk. As an organization, we will continue to play our part in eradicating hunger and supporting our communities”.

The CEO of FoodClique Support Initiative, Ibrahim Onilegbale, added, “Our longstanding partnership with TGI Cares Foundation has always been about more than just providing food. Together, we have consistently worked to combat hunger and create sustainable solutions for a more secure future for many Nigerians”.

Following food donations during the pandemic, the foundation intensified efforts in achieving its objectives. As part of its mandate to support education as a tool to engender food security, the foundation made a donation of laptops and pocket MiFi through Jigawa iLearn Scholars, to several students as they commenced their BSc, MSc and MBA programs at prestigious Indian universities under the e-VBAB Network Project among other things.

More recently, the foundation collaborated with the Cosmopolitan Women’s Club (CWC) by supporting the CWC Food Bank Project with monthly food donations. This partnership exemplifies a shared commitment to sustainable development and community empowerment.

The TGI Cares Foundation and FoodClique partnership have not only addressed the immediate effects of the economic crisis but also laid a foundation for long-term community resilience and sustainability. This partnership aligns with global objectives, including the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2 (Zero Hunger), 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), and 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).
