As part of its commitment of giving back to the Nigerian society and fulfilling its corporate social responsibility, Dufil Prima Foods Ltd, makers of Indomie Instant Noodles, donated medical equipment and supplies to the Rauf Aregbesola Primary Health Centre, Alimosho. This donation is part of Indomie’s broader mission of enhancing the quality of healthcare services and boosting the well-being of communities across Nigeria.
The donation comprises a range of essential medical equipment including mattresses, weight scales, incubators, endotracheal tubes, pillows, infant phototherapy unit and baby bed, among others. These medical supplies by Indomie are designed to improve the health centre’s ability to provide quality care, and to strengthen the overall health infrastructure of the community.
Speaking at the event, the Group Corporate Communications and Events Manager, Dufil Prima Foods Limited, Temitope Ashiwaju said that Indomie came to the community to accomplish one of its corporate social responsibility initiatives by donating medical equipment to public health facilities across the country, pointing out that the donation was part of a nationwide initiative by the brand.
“We did a need assessment of the health centre to determine what the dire needs and this informed the materials that we have brought here today to donate. We are glad to have met with the management and staff of the health facility, and just like we have said in the past, we feel that corporate entities like us need to support the government, most especially in the areas where we know that only the government alone might not be able to do all those interventions.
This initiative is something that is ongoing. As a caring brand, we have done quite a number of these donations in Port Harcourt, Kaduna, Kano. It is not just limited to the southwest. It is something that is nationwide. So, it is no surprise that we have come here to Rauf Aregbeshola Medical Facility here in Alimosho Local Government. We hope this contribution will make a real difference in the quality of healthcare available at the centre and will be put to good use”, Ashiwaju said.
He stated the brand’s commitment to continue with the initiative to reach other public health facilities across the country, making critical donations and interventions that are local to their needs, as a show of its dedication to the health and well-being of Nigerians, a significant aspect of the country’s Sustainable Development Goals. This, he added, is because it tallies with the brand’s the core CSR pillars, namely: health, ⁠education, ⁠empowerment and ⁠feeding.
Speaking also at the event, the Medical Officer of Health, Rauf Aregbesola Primary Heath Centre, Dr. Abiola Bolaji expressed deep appreciation for the donation, noting its potential to significantly improve the healthcare delivery of the centre. “I would like to say a big thank you to Dufil Prima Foods for the donation of the medical equipment. It is coming at the right time, and that’s because we have incorporated more integrated services through the Primary Health Care. We are hopeful that with this new equipment, more and more patients would be encouraged to come in, and that it would inspire the medical personnel to work better”, she said.
In addition to the donations, the brand also delighted the management and staff of the health centre as well as the community, with gifts, including cooked samples Indomie Instant Noodles and cartons of the product.
