Foundation renews commitment to empowering widows, supporting vulnerable children and restoring hope through a decade of humanitarian interventions.
The Chinwe Bode-Akinwande (CBA) Foundation has celebrated its 10th anniversary with its annual Walk4Hope Charity Walk, bringing together individuals, corporate organisations, partners and supporters to raise awareness and mobilise support for underprivileged widows and their children.
The event, held on Saturday, November 7, 2026, formed part of activities marking the Foundation’s decade of humanitarian service, advocacy and interventions aimed at improving the lives of vulnerable women and children across Nigeria.
Beyond its fitness and community engagement activities, Walk4Hope serves as an awareness and fundraising initiative designed to draw attention to the challenges confronting widows, including social discrimination, economic hardship, limited opportunities and the responsibility of providing for their children.
Through the initiative, the Foundation continues to encourage individuals, corporate organisations and other stakeholders to support efforts towards building a more inclusive society where widows and vulnerable children can access opportunities to improve their living conditions.
Established in 2015, the CBA Foundation focuses its humanitarian interventions on five major pillars: women empowerment and capacity building, health interventions, nutrition, quality basic education and self-employment.
Under these focus areas, the Foundation implements programmes aimed at equipping beneficiaries with practical skills, providing business development support, assisting children with educational needs and improving access to essential services.
Speaking on the milestone, the Foundation noted that its 10th anniversary represents more than a decade of existence, describing it as an opportunity to reflect on the lives touched, communities reached and impact made through its various humanitarian programmes.
The management also expressed appreciation to participants, volunteers and supporters whose contributions helped make the 2026 edition of Walk4Hope successful.
Special recognition was given to the Foundation’s corporate sponsors and partners, including FirstBank, Nominees, First Cap, First HoldCo, Nigerian Breweries, Nexra, Keskese, DigixPlus, Vyrus, Eko Hotels, Truecaller and HopeStores for their support and commitment to its mission.
As it enters its second decade of humanitarian service, the CBA Foundation has reaffirmed its commitment to restoring dignity, empowering women and creating sustainable opportunities for widows and vulnerable children.
The Foundation said it would continue to strengthen its interventions to ensure that beneficiaries have access to the support and opportunities needed to build better lives with hope and confidence.
