The organizers of the Nigerian gospel concert ‘Green Worship’ have announced their goal to raise ₦100 million for orphanages and vulnerable children across Nigeria during this year’s benefit concert. This marks the seventh edition of the concert, organized by Worship for Change, and it is set to take place at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Sheraton Hotel, Ikeja, on October 1, 2024, starting at 5 PM.
The concert will feature performances by notable artists including Nathaniel Bassey, AnEndlessOcean, and Nosa. The ₦100 million raised will be distributed among several charities focused on supporting indigent children, such as the Flora Trust Foundation, Gilead Initiatives, and Bethesda School for the Blind.
Joining the lineup will be legendary U.S. gospel singer Bob Fitts alongside Nigerian icons like Tope Alabi, Olumide Iyun, IB Quake, Gabriel Eziashi, Judikay, and Joe Mettle.
Other charities set to benefit from the fundraising efforts include the Agbedare Jesus Care Foundation in Ibadan, Gold Gate Missions in Adamawa, and Jesus Orphanage in Port Harcourt.
Pastor Wale Adenuga, Chief Responsibility Officer of Worship for Change, emphasized the critical need for community support, encouraging both individuals and corporations to attend the free concert and donate generously. “This concert is not just a celebration; it’s a vital campaign to provide essential resources for children in need,” he stated during a recent press conference. He also announced a 21 Days of Giving initiative throughout October to further amplify their support.
Worship for Change has previously raised over ₦130 million for various charities, benefiting thousands of children. Last year’s concert alone contributed ₦8.25 million to four selected charities.
