According to a statement from PwC, representatives from the firm visited the beneficiary organisations in Lagos and Abuja to present the donations and engage with them on their work and impact.

The selected charities were nominated and voted for by PwC staff, with funding provided through voluntary contributions from both staff and partners.

Speaking on the initiative, the Corporate Responsibility Partner at PwC Nigeria, Obioma Ubah, said, “For the past eight years, 5for5 has allowed us to support charities that are driving real change in health, education, and social inclusion. This year’s beneficiaries are making meaningful contributions to their communities, and we are proud to assist them in their missions.”

The 2024 recipients of the PwC 5for5 Charity Drive include Advocates for Health and Rights of Women and Youths Initiative, Cerebral Palsy Centre, Akoka Study Centre, and Patrick Stephen Purple Heart Foundation for Widows, all in Lagos, as well as Darlez Care Orphanage Home in Abuja

Each charity received N1.8 million and has committed to continuing its vital work, which includes advocating for women’s rights, providing specialised care for children with cerebral palsy, and supporting young men’s academic and moral development, among others.

During the visits, PwC representatives interacted with the beneficiaries to better understand their operations and explore potential avenues for continued collaboration.

Ubah emphasised, “We believe in sustained partnerships as a means of fostering long-term societal transformation. By supporting these charities, we are contributing to the creation of a better future for all.”
