MAJID MICHEL, OSAS IGHODARO & BANKY W

Ex-Miss Black USA 2010, the ever delicious looking & gloriously stylish Osas Ighodaro launched her foundation called Joyful Joy Foundation at the weekend. Sunday, October 27, 2013 to be more precise at the Avenue Suites on Tiamiyu Savage, Victoria Island, Lagos. It's that hotel with the breath taking view of the Bar Beach. 


Like you all already know, the foundation was created to immortalize Osas sister, Joy who while pregnant a few years ago had visited Nigeria, but alas had caught malaria, complications of which led to her untimely demise with her yet unborn baby. Such sad tale.

The foundation main thrust is to help bring awareness towards the good fight against Malaria. Celebrities, stars & socialites alike all came to the venue to show support for a good cause. The event began with the magnificent rendition of the National Anthem, by a would be national treasure in the person of the sonorously blessed Seyi Shay. That seem that set the tune for the event, comedy was by Elenu, who as usual gave a great account of himself. Included as part of the event was dance by Gongbeat Production. Thereafter the thoughtfully crafted Joyful Joy Foundation theme song , which was produced by Tee Y Mix was sweetly delivered by Ella. The day's deejay was DJ Xclusive. 

The Joyful Joy Foundation is all about spreading Joy and touching lives, one community at a time. 

Some of those seen at the event were the likes of Majid Michel, Banky W, Ice Prince Zamani, Seyi Shay, Toolz Oniru and many others.

Joyful Joy Foundation Launches in Lagos Nigeria! on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2013

 






Slightly beyond a year after launching in the United States, the Joyful Joy Foundation is set to launch here in Nigeria.
 
Founded in 2012 by Osas Ighodaro and Co-founder Sioux Greaux, Joyful Joy supports the push for a healthier and Malaria-free Africa.  Its alleviation strategy to positively impact communities involves offering programs focused on health and wellness, ending hunger, preventable disease and providing economic development opportunities.
 
The Joyful Joy Foundation is an NGO registered in both the US and Nigeria.  It was founded in honor of Joy Ighodaro, sister to Osas Ighodaro, who was with child and contracted malaria during a trip to Nigeria in 2006. At the time, there was little awareness on early diagnosis and tragically two lives vanished. Osas became very passionate and pro-active with elevating the platform of malaria eradication and dedicates much of her time and energy towards awareness initiatives and fundraising. 
A trip to Nigeria in 2011 opened Osas' eyes to the plight of those living in distressed communities.  It was then, along with Sioux Greaux that a pledge was made to create Joyful Joy, to honor the lives of those gone too soon and to Spread More Joy into the lives of those who need it most. No one should have to bury a loved one because of a disease that is treatable and preventable. None should have to go without food and the basic necessities to live a healthy life.
Joyful Joy Foundation is set to launch in Nigeria on Sunday, October 27,  2013 at the Avenue Suites, Tiamiyu Savage, Victoria Island Lagos.

This event will be hosted by Gbenro Ajibade from Tinsel and Vimbai Mutinhiri of Africa Magic's StarGist.  The event will also feature performances from Tee Y Mix, Former Project Fame contestant Ella, Irawo crooner Seyi Shay, Comedian Elenu, and an amazing African Dance by GongBeat Productions. Music will be provided by the prolific D.J Xclusive.
The Joyful Joy Foundation is anchored in a push to Spread More Joy, Healthy Living and Giving Back to Communities. Support this worthy cause today!

OSAS IGHODALO JOYFUL JOY FOUNDATION's HEALTH & WELLNESS WORKSHOP & PHOTO SHOOT




Not only is Osas Ighodaro, the ex-Miss Black USA 2010 beautiful, she's also got a good heart to finish up the package. The gorgeous one at the weekend, Saturday, October 19, 2013 at the Campus Square, Lagos Island used her star quality to help focus attention on some health issues dear to her through her JJF Give-Back Experience Health & Wellness Workshop. It was a collaboration between the JJF & Society of Family Health.There was a special music performance by JJC.

According to what we have heard, the beautiful actress & ex-beauty queen established the Joyfuy Joy Foundation, named after her late sister Joy Ighodaro, who whilst pregnant had contracted Malaria fever while on a short visit to Nigeria. Sadly Joy & her unborn baby later died. The untimely loss apparently galvanized Osas to set up the foundation. 

The health and wellness workshop one of which held on Saturday, aims at offering discussions on health related topics by notable healthcare professionals and provide current health information, teach skills necessary to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors, and connect participants with appropriate resources. Participants will also receive wonderful parting gifts. Also free Malaria & HIV testing on site.

If more stars/celebs would take up such initiatives like this, what a wonderful world it just be.

Check out the event poster & Osas newly released stunning photos.
