I love a good event as much as anyone, but here's something worth highlighting beyond the fact that it's a concert...

Sometimes I almost get lost in working the UKGospel.com machine that I'm grateful when something comes along to realign my thoughts.

   Millions of young people are plunged into
  poverty and forced into illiteracy because
  of the death of a parent or guardian.

  Through the Focus Charity Concert, the
  plight of such young people in Nigeria is
  brought to light, reflecting the mission at
  the heart of the Bola Soyode
  Educational Foundation.
 
  The BSF currently sponsors young
  people, inclusive of tuition fees, uniforms
  and books. 

Here in the UK this BSF concert is supported by FUE Group, set up by Ify Gbinigie.

Losing the breadwinner  
The foundation sponsors the education of children, up to secondary school Level, who as a result of the death of the breadwinner of their families - or even both parents - find it difficult to carry on with their education.

The BSF has been able to raise a substantial amount of money over the years to help these children, sponsoring over a dozen children to secondary school since it started in 2004.

Sponsor 10 More Children, up to University
The aim for this fundraiser is to raise enough money to sponsor at least ten more children, but now the intention is to do so up to university level.

All the funds raised (not just the profits) will go straight to the foundation, and with the equivalent of £1 being N260, this money can go a long way to help these children, covering not only tuition fees, but the costs of uniforms and books as well.

Date: Saturday 16th January 2010.
