The Association of Online and Magazine Publishers has recognised the Foundation for Community Development (FUDECO), a Nigerian non-governmental organisation, with the prestigious Award of Excellent Performance for its tireless efforts in supporting the country’s most vulnerable communities.
Founded in 2019 by Sarli Sardo Nana, who serves as its chairman, FUDECO operates across Nigeria’s 19 northern states, delivering vital assistance to orphans, widows, the less privileged, and victims of disasters.
The organisation’s initiatives focus on community development and humanitarian services aimed at alleviating the hardships faced by marginalised groups.
The award was presented to Nana by Julius Peter, chairman of the Association of Online and Magazine Publishers, during a ceremony celebrating FUDECO’s impactful contributions.
The accolade is intended to inspire the organisation to continue its work in addressing societal inequalities and supporting those in need.
In his acceptance speech, Nana expressed gratitude for the recognition, describing it as a motivating factor for FUDECO to expand its outreach.
“We deeply appreciate your organisation for recognising FUDECO. This gesture is our motivation to do more and meet the needs and yearnings of the vulnerable in our society,” he said.
Nana also underscored the importance of collaboration in driving meaningful change, reaffirming FUDECO’s commitment to serving Nigeria’s underserved populations.
The award highlights the critical role of grassroots organisations in tackling systemic challenges in Nigeria, where poverty and displacement continue to affect millions.
FUDECO’s work remains a beacon of hope for communities striving for a better future.
