Afrobeat singer David Adeleke, aka Davido, has shown his philanthropy side of life by doling N237 million to 424 orphanages across the country through the David Adeleke Foundation, DAF.
Today Thursday, 20th of July, he made the announcement via his Twitter handle. He said individuals and cooperations across various sectors and regions contributed to the donation.
According to the press statement attached to his tweet, a total of 13, 818 children benefited from the donation.
He wrote: “I’ve always wanted to use my platform to serve others. Thankful that through your generosity, I’ve been able to do so.
“We recently disbursed over N200m to several orphanages in Nigeria, a tradition that started a few years ago around my birthday. Thank you to everyone who donated. With your help, we are changing lives.
“This is what I mean when I say we rise by lifting others. These are words in action. God bless you all!”
This is not the first time Davido is donating to orphanages. Last year he gifted N250 million to 292 orphanages in Nigeria which happens to be a fulfillment of the promise he made on his birthday in 2021.
I’ve always wanted to use my platform to serve others. Thankful that through your generousity, I’ve been able to do so.
