A.C.E, IREDE Foundation handover prosthetic limbs to four child amputees
Action for Change and Empowerment (A.C.E), in partnership with The IREDE Foundation, has handed over prosthetic limbs to four child amputees as part of the 2025 Limb Empowerment Project.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the handover ceremony marked the close-out of the 2025 intervention, which provided support for beneficiaries aged between two and 18.
Speaking at the event, A.C.E Deputy Country Manager and Project Coordinator, Ms. Chiamaka Ukpanwanne, said the partnership with The IREDE Foundation has continued to expand its reach since it began in 2023.
She said the intervention, which previously focused mainly on the South-West, has now extended to other regions of the country.
“This year, we supported four champions—one from the East, one from the North, and two from the West.
Our partnership with The IREDE Foundation has been fantastic.
“Seeing children living with disabilities become more independent brings joy not only to us but also to their caregivers,” she said.
Ukpanwanne noted that supporting younger amputees was a major milestone for the partnership.
“We are particularly excited about the two-year-old and four-year-old beneficiaries, as we have not previously worked with children that young,” she added.
Mr Gift Anyanwu, Programmes Associate at The IREDE Foundation, said the ceremony provided an opportunity for both organisations to witness the direct impact of their collaboration on the lives of recipients.
He said the foundation has supported over 100 child amputees with prosthetic limbs across Nigeria in the last three years.
“Our ‘Refer a Child’ campaign helps us reach children who may be hidden due to stigma associated with disability.
“Many families do not know that support exists, so outreach is essential.
“We are confident that these children will overcome limitations and societal barriers with the help of the prosthetic limbs provided,” he said.
A parent of one of the beneficiaries, Mr. Collins Chukwu, expressed gratitude to A.C.E and The IREDE Foundation for restoring confidence and mobility to his son, Miracle, who lost his limb in an accident at four months old.
He said the limb and accompanying scholarship support have transformed the boy’s life.
“He can now move, play, and do things like other children. We are truly grateful for the support given to our family,” he said.
NAN reports that both ACE and The IREDE Foundation say they hope to expand the programme in future years to support even more children living with limb loss across Nigeria. (NAN)
Wow! This blog looks exactly like my old one! It’s on a entirely different subject but it has pretty much the same layout and design. Great choice of colors!
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something that I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

Thanks for this article. I’d also like to convey that it can always be hard when you’re in school and starting out to create a long credit rating. There are many scholars who are just trying to pull through and have a protracted or favourable credit history can occasionally be a difficult element to have.
Thanks for your article. I would like to say a health insurance dealer also utilizes the benefit of the actual coordinators of a group insurance policy. The health insurance professional is given a list of benefits sought by somebody or a group coordinator. Exactly what a broker may is find individuals or maybe coordinators which usually best match up those desires. Then he reveals his tips and if both parties agree, the broker formulates an agreement between the 2 parties.
One thing I want to say is always that before obtaining more computer system memory, consider the machine in to which it will be installed. In case the machine is definitely running Windows XP, for instance, the actual memory limit is 3.25GB. The installation of over this would basically constitute some sort of waste. Be sure that one’s mother board can handle this upgrade amount, as well. Thanks for your blog post.
