Coscharis Motors, the exclusive representative of Ford in Nigeria recently donated bags of rice to two selected orphanage homes (Heritage Homes and Children Anchor Orphanages respectively) both located around Lekki – Epe axis of Lagos State in line with the Ford global week of Caring programme with all Ford affiliates around the World.

This initiative is a global tradition where Ford associates worldwide participate in a “Food Caring Drive” to support the less privileged in their communities. This year, Coscharis Motors representing Ford in Nigeria focused its efforts on these two orphanages in Lagos.

According to Mr. Abiona Babarinde, General Manager, Marketing and Corporate Communications, Coscharis Group, who led the Coscharis Ford team for the presentations posited that today’s consumers increasingly expect companies to stand for more than profit, corporate social responsibility (CSR) plays a growing role in purchasing decisions, loyalty and brand trust.

Ford recognizes this important link to consumers and has coordinated the Global Week of Caring for many years. In his words during the presentations to the homes, Babarinde said :

“As a representative of a globally respected iconic brand like Ford in Nigeria, we are excited to present these food items to these select special children to add to their nutritional health and sustain the effort in their well-being and upbringing. On behalf of Ford and Coscharis Motors, we are celebrating with both Heritage Homes and Children Anchor Orphanages Homes to mark the Ford Global Caring Month for the year 2025. This is what we are doing to represent what the Ford initiative is all about. We are presenting bags of rice to the Orphanages, and in so doing, we are equally appreciating the caregivers for taking care of the children, who have been subjected to a new life for reasons beyond their control.”
