HUMAN CONCERN FOUNDATION INTERNATIONAL (HCFI)

The Muslim Congress has long thought of the need to have in place a plan of action to help people who are faced with disasters or difficult situations. This could be flood, fire, explosions, accident, war and the likes. This thought gave birth to Concern Foundation International, a body devoted to providing relief to people encountering various forms of disaster and difficulty. HCFI makes use of an open tent where affected individuals can report for all their needs ranging from medicaments to feeding and comfort. The first outing of HCFI was actually during the bomb blast in Lagos which displaced a lot of people. The Congress was at hand to donate to the affected individuals and comfort them. The Congress thereafter commenced the process of constructing a canopy that would serve as refuge for the affected people as well as secretariat for the officials of HCFI. It is also involved in prison welfare activities which are currently expanding fast.
