🌿 LOVE IN ACTION | A LEGACY THAT LIVES ON 🌿

On Monday, October 27th, 2025, the Michael Dato Relief Foundation brought smiles and hope to Jangaru Village, near Minna, Niger State. 💚

Through a medical outreach, lives were touched and health restored. 🩺
And to inspire the next generation, free writing materials were distributed to pupils of St. John’s Primary School, Jangaru. ✏️📚

This outreach was held in commemoration of the 25th memorial anniversary of Late Engr. Michael Dato Umaru — a man whose legacy of compassion continues through the works of his daughter, our dear Mummy Helen, President of the Foundation. 💖

His story reminds us that true impact never dies; it multiplies through acts of kindness.

🙌 To God be the glory!

🚫 Say No to Drugs — Say Yes to Life!

Every dream lost to drugs is a future stolen.

At Michael Dato Relief Foundation, we believe every young person deserves the chance to rise — free from addiction, fear, and regret. That’s why we’re taking a bold stand against drug abuse, especially among vulnerable youths in underserved communities.

1 in 7 Nigerians aged 15–64 has used a drug at least once.

Many begin due to peer pressure, lack of guidance, or emotional pain.

But recovery is possible. Prevention is better. Support is powerful.

🎯 What MDRF is Doing:
✅ Drug awareness workshops in schools
✅ Counseling and peer education sessions
✅ Partnering with communities for safe youth spaces
✅ Empowering at-risk youth with skills and hope

💬 “Real empowerment starts with a clear mind. We’re not just giving books and tools — we’re helping them reclaim their future.”
— Deaconess Helen Umar, MDRF President

🙌 Join Us
Together, we can help one more child say NO to drugs and YES to purpose.

As we commemorate Democracy Day, let us cast our vote for active citizenship — not just at the ballot box, but through our daily choices and actions. Active citizenship means being informed, speaking up, and staying involved in the decisions that shape our society. It is choosing to promote justice, peace, and inclusion — even when it’s inconvenient or unpopular.

Nations don’t thrive on policies alone — they are built on the strength of character, compassion, and conviction of their people. True greatness emerges when citizens stop being passive observers and become intentional nation-builders. At the heart of this transformation are volunteers and givers — everyday heroes who offer their time, resources, and talents to lift others and light the way.

Every act of kindness, every effort to educate or empower, every voice raised for what is right — is a vote for the Nigeria we all believe in.

At Michael Dato Relief Foundation, we are building that future — one person, one family, one community at a time.

Join the movement. Be the change. Serve. Give. Build.
Happy Democracy Day!

🌾 Happy Labour Day! ⚒️💛

Today, we at Michael Dato Relief Foundation celebrate every heart that cares and every hand that works—not just for profit, but for people.
To those who labour daily to lift others,
To those who build opportunities where there were none,
To those who carry the burdens of the poor, the widowed, the voiceless—
We see you. We honour you.

Your work may not always make headlines,
But it changes lives,
and that is the highest form of labour.

This Labour Day, we salute the quiet heroes—
individuals, NGOs, faith groups, and volunteers—
whose labour is rooted in love and driven by purpose.
Keep building. Keep believing. ??
