Air Peace Limited, has stressed its commitment to social impact and child-centered advocacy by actively participating in two significant Children’s Day 2025 celebrations: the Parkland Amusement Center Children’s Fiesta and Raising Star’s This Ability 4.0.
Both engagements aimed to honor children and foster inclusive environments where every child’s voice is heard and valued.
Celebrating Unity and Joy at Parkland Fiesta
At the Parkland Children’s Fiesta, held at Parkland Amusement Park in Lagos, Air Peace sponsored 40 children from various underprivileged schools, enabling them to enjoy a day filled with engaging activities, games, and refreshments.
The event brought together children from diverse backgrounds, promoting a spirit of unity and happiness. Air Peace’s involvement alongside other prominent brands like Chocolate City, Mavin Records, and Ryno Auto highlighted its dedication to celebrating the aspirations of Nigerian children.
Empowering Every Voice at This Ability 4.0
Concurrently, Air Peace extended its support to Raising Star’s This Ability 4.0, an annual advocacy event held at The Darlington Hall, Ilupeju, Lagos. This event, themed “Empowering Every Voice,” focused on spotlighting and celebrating the abilities of children living with disabilities.
The program featured an art exhibition showcasing the creativity of children with disabilities, a talent competition spanning fashion, music, and visual arts, and a dance competition involving inclusive schools. Additionally, seminars were conducted for parents, advocates, and tutors of children with disabilities, alongside financial grants for youth-led SMEs and young adults with disabilities.
Dignitaries such as Lagos State Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Mr. Mobolaji Ogunlende, and actress Juliana Olayode were in attendance, alongside major brands including the Aliko Dangote Foundation, MILO, BIC Nigeria, IHS, NNPC, Supreme Foods, and Maltina.
Air Peace’s participation at This Ability 4.0 was particularly impactful. The airline presented a cash prize to the winner of the talent showcase, acknowledging excellence and creativity among children with special needs.
An Air Peace representative also delivered a goodwill message, reiterating the company’s dedication to inclusion, equity, and the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive.
