Plans are on to gear for the 2021 edition of “Green Worship”, an annual benefit gospel musical concert organised by Worship for Change, an NGO founded in 2006 to create awareness and support for indigent children, orphans and children with special needs.
This year’s edition will be featuring famous gospel artists like Nathaniel Bassey, Nuel Robinson, Efe Nathan and of course Wale Adenuga.
Other gospel musicians to feature during the event scheduled to hold virtually on Saturday September 18 by 5 pm (WAT), include Laolu Gbenjo, Folabi Nuel, Evans Ogboi, Purist Ogboi, Femi Okunuga, Ore Macaulay, David Omodunmiju, and Angelo.
The convener, Wale Adenuga, said the gospel concert, which aims at creating awareness and raising funds which are disbursed to charity to help orphanages, leprosy centres, and other care-giving outfits, for the benefit of the needy in society, hopes to raise N100 million this year.
This year’s edition Adenuga said is the 11th, and has the theme, “More with You”, adding that the beneficiaries of this year’s benefit concert include: The Farid Centre, Irede Foundation, Leprosy Mission Nigeria, and Godswill Orphanage.
The Green Worship, which has made tremendous impacts on the activities of caregivers through generous financial assistance courtesy of the earlier editions of Worship for Change, presented N7.5m from proceeds gotten from last year’s edition to six charities that care for vulnerable children and children with special needs.
