The ESA is partnering with WACOL, (Women's Aid Collective ), in carrying out their mission of providing free shelter , to job training, dispute resolution, advocacy, free legal and financial aid for battered women and their children. Most of these local impoverished women and their children have suffered human rights violations and require intra familial conflict resolutions. The Founding Director of Women Aid Collective, Dr Joy Ngozi Ezeilo, will also be in attendance at the Enugu Day fundraiser, and will speak at the event. "Domestic violence can never be eliminated from society unless society refuses to tolerate it. This will require an internal change in the basic nature of society world over, beginning with the recognition of the worth of every human being as an individual. We are doing this for the future and current generations. For our daughters, our sisters, our cousins, and women in general.

| HelloFood Launches Apps For Wider Food Delivery In Nigeria Posted: 10 Mar 2014 02:35 PM PDT  While in Lagos setting up NS Publishing, I was a very busy bunny. I worked very long days, and most of the time, I was out of the office and on the road. My eating habits made something like full about turn from being in my own home and cooking for myself. On many days, I was stuck with having to eat while out. But since time was an issue, I was running from one meeting to the other, and from one office to the next, I didn't have to time to go into restaurants, where it might take them an hour to serve your meal. And also, I was trying to save on money, so I would mostly snack on beef sausage rolls like Gala while in traffic or buy meat-pies from fast food places. For a while I was making this work for me – I do love sausage rolls and meat pies – but seriously, they are not very healthy to keep eating everyday and they get pretty old after a while. I had earlier heard about Hellofood and I wondered if I would have need to use their services but as it happened, that opportunity never presented itself. You see, I was staying with my MIL and she cooks amazing food, honest. She would even wake up early some days and cut/pack fruits and water for me knowing I am something of a healthy eater and she wanted to support me. How lucky can one woman get, eh? LOL... But for those of you who live and work in that crazy amazing city called Lagos and its environs, and you do not have an awesome MIL or partner to pack your lunch or make you dinner? Hellofood Nigeria is here to the rescue! They also deliver in Abuja and Port Harcourt.    HelloFood is an online restaurant directory with over 250 restaurants and you can order great Nigerian recipes from restaurants such as Mama Cass, Sweet Sensations, Chicken Republic, and Bukka Hut from the comfort of your own homes or office. There are also other menu selections ranging from Pizza, Sushi, Thai and American food. And now, Hellofood has added to their arsenal, apps for both android and apple devices that make it easier to order and has an even more extensive reach. You can get the app on your smartphone from either the iTunes store and from Google play. Happy ordering and eating! _________ Sponsored content | ||
| A Global Movement For Entrepreneurship - IndieGogo Campaign Posted: 10 Mar 2014 02:35 PM PDT  As a growing entrepreneur, I was very interested when I found out about the Billion Entrepreneurs movement and watched the preview of the movie. The objective of this global movement is to plant the seed of entrepreneurship into multiple generations and re-define the word, "entrepreneurship" to mean, "Taking responsibility for outcomes." This ultimately means taking responsibility for one's life and current situation and I'm all for that. "A Billion Entrepreneurs" the film was created as a major catalyst to jump start this movement, and spark people to get inspired to find their purpose in life, with the end result of living happier and more fulfilling lives. See the preview below... The film's CATALYZING STATEMENT – a phrase that emotionally motivates people to take action - is unique, "an entrepreneur in every home." The key aspect of the film is watching the participants bring this ethos and the new definition of entrepreneurship, "Taking responsibility for outcomes", alive onscreen. So what does entrepreneurship with this new, redefined definition look like in this film? It depicts: FREEDOM. What does freedom mean to you? Freedom to do what's important to you. Freedom to make the right choices. SECURITY. What is precious to you? your job, your family, your community? What else? SUCCESS. How do you define success? Is it personal success, financial success, social success? You decide. THE INDIEGOGO CAMPAIGN FOR THE MOVIE Donate HERE A Billion Entrepreneurs is an inspiring, feature-length documentary film which follows real-life entrepreneurs as they leave a trail of impact, inspiration, mentorship, and responsibility in their business and personal lives. Adrienne, Brian, Fritzi, Ken (and his two beautiful daughters, Katherine and Isabelle), Pam, Rand, and Rick take us through a fast-paced education on what it's like to be entrepreneurs in the real world. The purpose is to inspire viewers, while allowing them to understand how accessible and invigorating being an entrepreneur can really be. The goal for the viewer is to be a converted fan to the spirit and contagion of entrepreneurship, regardless of their background. One of the film's objectives is for the viewer to say after watching the move, "I can do this!" After seeing the full effect of living lives aligned with this new definition of entrepreneurship, the many people associated with the film came together with a vision of "An entrepreneur in every home" and they created a nonprofit charity to support that cause called the "A Billion Entrepreneurs Charitable Fund." All donations collected through the ABE Charitable Fund will be distributed to other non-profit organizations that align with our purpose and catalyzing statement.
