This year we have seen it fit to join the children in orphanages in the country in offering this Eid hand donation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll religions, Muslims and Christians, believe that the Lord helps the person who helps his brother. In other words, we were created to help others and this is the purpose of our presence here at the Ijango- Zaidia Orphanage, Sinza Madukani in Dar es Salaam,\u201d said Akonaay.<\/p>\n<p>He further said that the donation will also be made by the bank\u2019s employees in all its NMB regions in the country by providing various food stuffs such as rice, cooking oil, sugar and tea leaves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe hope to reach 12 orphanages in all regions with more than 1,000 children and give them the comfort of celebrating theday like other children. All these events are proving that NMB Bank is part of the society. At Ijango Zaidia Centre we are happy that this gift will put a smile on the faces of 125 children. May God bless you and wish you Idd Mubarak! \u201dSaid Akonaay.<\/p>\n<p>For her part, the head of the Orphanage, Ijango Zaidia, Zaidia Nuru said: \u201cWhat you have done is a great thing for these children. We have no parents and you are their parents. God will reward you for everything you have done and be more successful in your endeavors.\u201d Nuru noted that giving is encouraging.<\/p>\n<p>According to Nuru, there are many institutions and organizations in the country, but NMB decided to give to give a smile to orphans across the country.<\/p>\n<p>NMB Manager for Zanzibar Region Donatus Richard said putting smiling to members of the community was part of the bank\u2019s culture \u201cNMB has eight regions across the country, we have provided food and beverage support to 12 centers in eight regions in the country, this is our tradition, \u201csaid Richard.<\/p>\n<p>Sheikh of Tabora District, Ramadhani Jum a who participated in the handover ceremony for the Western region said: \u201cNMB has set an example that organizations, institutions and individuals should be touched to help vulnerable children at all times.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
