Hope Visits Yaba Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital 29th April 2017

"The second edition of #HopeVisits was an overwhelming success. We took a risk and because of you, it paid off. We did not do the usual - show up, give food, drop clothes and be on our way. We did so much more. HOPE demands that we do so much more. This time, we the hope bearers stormed 'Yaba Left' with lots of fruits, drinks and food. We put smiles on the patients' faces as they watched The Wedding Party (just picture it). We actually sat down with them and had conversations about life, challenges and their message to the world. Because of you, we touched over 379 lives at Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Yaba with goody bags containing toilet paper, bathing and washing soap, sponge, deodorant, sanitary toilet, and so much more."
