MTN Nigeria Organizes MTNF 0703 Toll Free Counseling
February 27, 2008 by bunmi
As part of its social responsibility project, the Board of Directors of MTN Foundation recently approved and deployed some toll free counseling lines in support of the bereaved members of the society in June last year.
An initiative of Aart of life Foundation (partner of the Health portfolio, MTNF), the “0703-Healing Project” is dedicated to providing grief counseling and moral support to members of the society.
It aims at improving social support and acceptance for grieving women in the society and giving them the voice through advocacy and public enlightenment. The focus is to reduce some negative cultural perceptions suppressing bereaved people in Nigeria.
The advantage of setting up a project that is anchored by the GSM service provider is the ability to reach grieving people in distance communities.
