As part of efforts aimed at supporting Nigerians economically, Vantage Markets, an online forex trading platform, has donated 2,000 packs of relief items to residents of Ikeja local government in Lagos.
The project is part of the firm’s Corporate Social Responsibility targeted at reaching five selected capital cities in Nigeria including Abuja, Abeokuta, Akure, Ibadan and Ikeja.
The Regional Manager, of Vantage Markets Africa, Mr. Ted Odigie, stated that the initiative aligns with the firm’s long-term vision of supporting and empowering communities to thrive.
Odigie stated that this year’s event which also doubles as a celebration of the firm’s 15th anniversary, marks a significant milestone in Vantage Market’s journey while also acknowledging the undeniable contributions of the public to its growth and successes over the years.
“As a global brand, this programme is part of our corporate vision to uplift communities and we are starting here in Nigeria by empowering the youth through our wealth creation platform. It is also a celebration of our journey and we are proud to use this opportunity to give back to the communities we serve.
“Given the current economic situation and in commemoration of our fifteenth anniversary, we are distributing 2,000 packs of food items to residents and two selected orphanages in Ikeja, Lagos state.”
On her part, Marketing Manager, Vantage Market Africa, Ms. Omatosan Adeogun, stated that the CSR is a demonstration of the firm’s commitment to improving the lives of communities where it operates.
“At Vantage Markets, we believe our success is deeply tied to the well-being of the communities we operate not just as a financial services provider, but also as a partner in progress and this reflects our commitment to making a positive difference.
“We believe it is our responsibility to empower our community to be self-sufficient and it goes above just these relief items. We want every Nigerian to attain financial independence and the only way to do that in this economy is through financial markets and with Vantage Markets as a core partner in success,” She said.
