Over 1,500 Osun State residents, including women, children, widows and the elderly, have benefited from a one-day feeding programme organised by Fidelity Bank.

The food bank project was held at St. Benedict Catholic Church, Osogbo, under the bank’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Initiative created to reach out to vulnerable persons and reduce the effect of hunger in the society.

Speaking at the distribution event, the Divisional Head, Brand and Communication, Fidelity Bank Plc, Dr. Meksley Nwagboh, described the Food Bank Initiative as the bank’s contribution towards helping the less privileged in the society.

Highlighting the bank’s commitment to supporting the underserved communities in its outreach efforts in the Osogbo and environs, he noted that “Food security is a pressing challenge.

“As a socially-responsible organisation, we are committed to tackling this issue. We collaborate with various non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to identify communities in dire need and provide much-needed food support,” he said.

According to Nwagboh, “there is always a significant turnout of people during our Food Bank outreaches. This programme holds every month, and the distribution of the food packs takes place simultaneously across all regions of the country. Today, we brought over 1,500 packs of food items to be distributed to the people and plan to continue to do more in communities across the country to help those in need.”

Applauding the initiative by Fidelity Bank, Reverend Father Michael Domingo of St. Benedict Catholic Church, Osogbo, stated: “It is surprising and commendable that a bank in Nigeria is giving back to the community.  We are aware that banks are known for taking, but Fidelity Bank is giving back to the people.

“The Fidelity Food Bank initiative is worthy of emulation which is why the Catholic Church has a working relationship with the Bank. We recognize its uniqueness and appreciate how it helps the community.”

On his part. Reverend Father Joseph Komolafe, the host priest, encouraged affluent individuals to follow Fidelity Bank’s example in combating hunger.

“You don’t have to wait until you have plenty before you give out. Share what you have, no matter how little, for the progress and development of society,” he stated.

The Fidelity Food Bank Initiative continues to make a significant impact, providing vital support to those in need and reinforcing the bank’s commitment to social responsibility.

Ranked as one of the best banks in Nigeria, Fidelity Bank is a full-fledged commercial bank with over 8.3 million customers serviced across its 251 business offices in Nigeria and the United Kingdom as well as on digital banking channels.

The bank has won multiple local and international awards including the Export Finance Bank of the Year at the 2023 BusinessDay Banks and Other Financial Institutions (BAFI) Awards, the Best Payment Solution Provider Nigeria 2023 and Best SME Bank Nigeria 2022 by the Global Banking and Finance Awards; Best Bank for SMEs in Nigeria by the Euromoney Awards for Excellence 2023, and Best Domestic Private Bank in Nigeria by the Euromoney Global Private Banking Awards 2023.
