FEEDING THE HUNGRY IN NIGERIA & Sub-Sahara Africa

SEVAOUTREACH began in 1997 to serve free monthly food to destitute at the Oshodi Railway line in Lagos. Later in that year, Park ‘n’ Shop supermarket donated food items to be distributed to homeless persons on the Indian festival of Diwali.

The company later requested SEVAOUTREACH to be collecting food items from their warehouse and distribute to homeless persons. In year 2000  two companies Metro Group and Limca Bottlersco- sponsored feeding the homeless on Earthday 2000 – an event in which several hundreds of homeless persons were fed free food.

Since that humble beginnings, SEVOUTREACH has grown to become a well-known hunger relief project attracting local and international support and commendation. The project took a new dimension in 2005 when with  funding  support from HIPPOCHARITY (UK), GreenAngels (Poland), Food For Life Global (USA) and the Sathya Sai SEVA organisation  in Nigeria we went to Niger Republic to serve free food  in   response to the drought and famine in that country.

Since then SEVAOUTREACH has serve free veg food in Mali, Benin Republic,Togo and Burkina Faso.To date SEVAOUTREACH has organized over 200  major events feeding several thousands of homeless persons in Nigeria & W/Africa
