UPDATE - Thank you for everyone who was generously lifting up and contributing toward my trip back home to Nigeria. It was a wonderful time with my family, and really valuable. I am keeping this page open now, as an ongoing channel of financial support for Akan and myself. THANK YOU for helping make it possible for us to serve! We truly appreciate you.
It has been 7 years since I have visited my homeland of Nigeria. I would love to go home to reconnect with beloved family and friends, but especially, as the eldest child I have a duty to settle the affairs of my mother, who passed away a few years ago. I was not able to go home when she died.
As I don't earn a salary in my role as Catering Manager at Crossroads, I am reaching out to ask for help from my community of friends, to be able to make this trip.
I have calculated that I would need around HK$25,000 (US$3,000) for the expenses surrounding this trip.
I truly appreciate any gift you are able to give, and I am thankful for all of you.
