Monrovia – Liberia’s leading gaming company, Winners Incorporated, has identified with several orphanages, underprivileged children and the disable community in this festive season as part of its corporate social responsibility.
Winners Inc. which has significantly contributed to youth empowerment and employment opportunities for Liberians, has made it habitual and a regular routine during the festive season to seek the welfare of orphans, people living with disabilities, and underprivileged children by putting smiles on their faces.
For the past 13 years, the company, every year, has been distributing food and non-food items to various orphanages and underprivileged children through its Christmas giveaway program.
The orphanages, disabled community, and underprivileged children who benefitted from the gifts of food and clothing for this year’s distribution include the Antoinette Tubman Cheshire Home on 10th Street in Sinkor, the Christ Victory Int’l Mission in Duazon, Margibi County, and the School of the Deaf in Mango Town, Brewerville.
In his address, the owner of Winners Inc., Mr. Yacob Batshon, said giving back to the Liberian society through the disabled and underprivileged communities is part of the company’s way of affirming its commitment to promoting the government’s agenda.
He emphasized that Winners Inc. sees itself as a partner with the government and people of Liberia and must at all times play a positive role in the life of the nation and its people.
Said Mr. Batshon, “Winners Inc. must contribute to help make not only the season joyous for some people but must support the Liberian economy by the creation of jobs for the Liberian people,”
Through the company’s numerous betting platforms, thousands of Liberians have over the years become fortunate winners, taking home cash prizes that have the potential to transform their lives and make a greater impact on Liberia’s economy.
Recently, a Liberian, Madison M. Wesseh, won the highest cash prize won by an individual since the launch of the sports betting company’s operations in Liberia.
Wesseh, a POP designer, wagered US$160 and won US$24,620.
