Celebrating Women, Driving Change: International Women’s Day 2026
Today, on International Women’s Day, DeKing Charity Foundation proudly joins the global celebration of women’s achievements and the call for gender equality. This year’s theme, “Empower, Include, Transform”, reminds us that when women thrive, communities thrive.
At DeKing, women are at the heart of our programs, leading initiatives that impact health, education, livelihoods, and social development. From guiding community interventions to shaping policy advocacy, our female leaders ensure that the voices of women and girls are heard, respected, and acted upon.
Women Leading Change
Across Nigeria, women drive innovation and resilience in every sector—yet they still face barriers in access to finance, education, and decision-making roles. DeKing Foundation is committed to closing these gaps by:
- Supporting women-led initiatives in communities
- Providing skill-building programs and training opportunities
- Advocating for gender-inclusive policies at local and national levels
Through our sister company, Echo FM 100.7 Owerri, we are raising awareness on women’s rights, health, and economic empowerment, creating platforms where women’s voices can reach every corner of the community.
Why This Matters
Women carry both visible and invisible responsibilities—from household care to community leadership—and their contributions are critical to Nigeria’s development. Empowering women is not just a matter of fairness; it is an investment in stronger families, healthier communities, and resilient economies.
Join Us
This IWD, DeKing Charity Foundation calls on partners, stakeholders, and community members to celebrate women’s achievements and actively support initiatives that advance equality. Together, we can transform opportunities into real change, ensuring that women are recognized, valued, and empowered in every sphere of life.
Let’s continue to put women at the forefront—because when women lead, communities flourish.
