Local NPO hosts successful event

“Many people had the opportunity to give back to their local communities through the SOC initiative with selfless acts of love."

CFCI Welfare NPO recently held its annual Serve Our City (SOC) event.

“The event aimed to constructively activate volunteers to impact the communities by donating their time and energy, to spruce up residential and orphaned homes, clean public areas and enhance infrastructures,” said welfare director pastor Tracey Thomaz.

According to Tomaz, the project has generated many heart-warming and inspiring stories.
