Giving back to the society has always been a key commitment of the Sahara Group. As against making a show of our contributions to the development of society, our focus is on quietly touching lives that genuinely need help. In concerted effort with credible and globally recognized organizations, we ensure that our contributions cut across various societies and regions towards the alleviation of poverty, disease and suffering.
Our desire to eradicate socio-economic diseases such as guinea-worm from our society has led to several guinea-worm eradication programmes in various communities all over the country. We also work towards eliminating preventable blindness across poverty-stricken communities. This is achieved through the provision of treatment and public enlightenment on eye diseases through a team of qualified volunteer ophthalmologists.
The Sahara Group plays an active role in child welfare through the school feeding programme. This is done by providing a meal per day for children within selected schools in various communities nationwide. Thereby increase school enrollment rates, alleviate short term hunger and improve nutritional status, thus increasing attention span and enhancing overall performance of the child.
At Sahara Group, we are rewarded by the positive impact of our programmes on our society as a whole. As a result, we are refueled with the energy and motivation we need to constantly change the lives of the rural poor and economically disadvantaged.
