Yesterday 14th February 2018 the Uyo Steemit community (of which I am a member and administrator to the community) executed the much anticipated Steemit uyo cares project with the aim of expressing love to the orphanage children at the orphanage home in Uyo. We brought enduring smiles on the faces of the children on the special valentine day.

At The Venue

When we arrived the venue, we spent quality time doing the following:

• Hive account@samstickkz had interaction with the children by getting to know their names.

• Hive account@ekjosh inspired the orphan kids to take their education seriously and have strong believe in themselves that they are of great value to the society.

• We celebrated the Birthday of the orphans born in the month of February.

• Hive account@samstickkz presented the items we brought for the orphan kid to the orphanage officials.
