By Kadiri Christopher 



The National Association of Seadogs, NAS, also referred to as Pyrates Confraternity, has recently visited a charity and caregiving home in Benin to contribute to the welfare and educational needs of the children in the home.


The NAS from the Benbow Deck in conjunction with the Earthquake Deck whose visit to the Oronsaye Orphanage located at the Ewah Road axis of Benin City, cheered the kids and admonished them to embrace education.

Presenting the items to the home, the Project Coordinator, Omotayo Fasade said, "we are here to show you how much we love you. We would have been here in December but because of the numerous activities, we decided to make it today.


"We got some clothes from our sister Deck in California and we added some writing materials and one other member also contributed personally and we have all the items here for you.


"We are using this opportunity to encourage you to focus on your education and God bless you", he said.


On his part, the President of the Benbow Deck, Mr Ibrahim Oven said, "nothing is really too much to give to these kids, so we have come with the little we have.


"This is a collaboration of the Benbow Deck in Benin and the Earthquake Deck in California.


"We don't undertake periodic projects in NAS. We undertake projects when there is a need for it and that is why you keep seeing us doing projects upon projects, though it's tasky", he said.


Pa Ebizugbe Christopher Osaigbovo who is a member of the NAS said, "it is a thing of joy for us when we give back to the society. We are conscious of the fact that there are endless needs and we in our own little way have been trying. It is our corporate social responsibility though."


Items presented to the Home were big sack bags of clothes, foodstuffs, educational materials, toiletries and cash.


Prayers were offered for the association by some children in the Care Home.
