The Temple Gate Empowerments Foundation had their inaugural outing Nnewi for Talent and Skill Exhibition in a grand style on April 23, 2022, at the Kings Hotel Extension. It was an occasion that brought together individuals with unique skills and those that are yearning to learn a skill or sharpen their skills.
Temple Gate Empowerments Foundation had been an unsung hero in the area of philanthropy through helping the youths to acquire skill that they will use to become gainfully employed, or entrepreneurs.
Finally, through the advice of the beneficiaries of their benevolence, and people who believe in what they have been doing, Temple Gates Empowerments Foundation had to now come out from the shadow so that more jobless youths can have a fighting chance to survive.
The Temple Gate Empowerments Foundation Board of Trustees is led by the indefatigable Lady Tina OKoli, a woman who possesses multiple skills set, and ever willing to impact on the lives of the youths. She is the Managing Director of Excel Techniques Fashion and Millinery. With the compliment of her spouse and others, they worked round the clock to ensure that the event came off without a hitch.
The event was chaired by the amiable Mr. Emmanuel Agba (E-manners), who did a fantastic job piloting the affairs which included dance performance and some comedy shows. Several individuals of substance across the society graced the occasion.
While it will be difficult to mention names of the Foundation’s benefactors in one way or the other, it is fair to acknowledge the important role of Chief Sylvester Unigwe played.
The Foundation is grateful as well to the resource people who shared their knowledge in various fields through the training they conducted at the event. The resource people were Ubah Mmadu Abuchi (Shoe making), Ozuruonye Chiamaka Perpetual (Makeup), Owoh Nnonye (Cosmetology), Akan Udoh Evidence (Paint Making), Mbadigat Josephine Ngozi (Confectionaries, and Nzube Udoji (Zubby) (Hats and Fascinators).
The Chairman of the Board, Lady Tonia Okoli extended her appreciation to the guests and resource people, including, the ordained people who turne up in their numbers. She informed them that the program will remain at the minimal annual event.
The Foundation is indeed very grateful to Joachin Okonkwo (UBI, Okwuejuigbo) for the generous donation of his time to provide advise to the Foundation, and very substantial material resources he donated towards the successful launching of the event.
