Every Child Deserves a Chance to Dream, Learn, and Grow
For children who have battled cancer, this chance is often interrupted by the harsh realities of treatment and financial strain. However, Beiersdorf Nigeria, the makers of NIVEA, is determined to rewrite that narrative.
Hope in Action: NIVEA’s ₦16.4 Million Back-to-School Donation
In a moving display of compassion, Beiersdorf Nigeria has donated over ₦16.4 million to The Dorcas Cancer Foundation. This generous contribution, part of the Back-to-School Fund initiative, will provide tuition, books, uniforms, and other essential supplies for 15 young cancer survivors for an entire school year.
But this initiative goes beyond financial aid—it is about restoring hope, rebuilding dreams, and giving these resilient children a fair chance to succeed.
“Care Beyond Skin”: A Mission to Impact Lives
Oladele Adeyole, Country Manager for Beiersdorf Nigeria, encapsulated the company’s vision:
“Beiersdorf believes in fostering a more inclusive society and creating a positive impact. This is why our ‘Care Beyond Skin’ agenda exists—to promote both social and environmental change. Our partnership with The Dorcas Cancer Foundation is one of the ways we’re making a real difference.”
Adeyole also highlighted the unique challenges these children face, explaining how medical treatment often forces them out of school and places significant financial strain on their families.
More Than a Gift: A Second Chance
For the children receiving support, this initiative is far more than a financial gift—it’s a chance to dream again. It represents a new chapter, where education becomes a bridge to a brighter future.
Proof of the Power of Community and Business Collaboration
This campaign demonstrates how businesses and communities can come together to drive meaningful change. Every NIVEA product purchased during the campaign contributed to this life-changing cause, showcasing the collective power of small actions creating a monumental impact.
Beiersdorf’s partnership with The Dorcas Cancer Foundation stands as a powerful reminder: when compassion meets commitment, lives can be transformed.
