In his reply, Dr. Harcourt Somiari, who received the items on behalf of the hospital, expressed great joy and appreciation to Oilserv for remembering them.

He said the visit and gifts could not have come at a better time. He alongside other colleagues sent their love and appreciation to the Chairman, staff, and management for reaching out and showing love to our community. He said that like Oliver Twist, they still hope for more the next time our CSR activity comes round.

The Oilserv team thanked the teachers and students and promised to present their demands to the management for further considerations.

The climax of the CSR activity was the visit of the team to The Home for the Elderly in the old Port Harcourt Town. The home was presented with food items, clothes, toiletries and so on.

The Reverend Sister in-charge, Sister Mary Jane Agusiobi, was ecstatic at our visit and gifts. She said that Oilserv team was like a gift from the Gods.

She recounted their dire situation, made even worse by the pandemic that has practically left them with nothing from kindhearted individuals and organizations.

One of the elderlies led the team in a very heart-rending prayer session.

He prayed for our Chairman who made this initiative possible, prayed for the whole Oilserv organization and for all men and women to find love and care in their twilight years.

The CSR week was a great opportunity for the organization to feel the pulse of the community. It provides insight into the state of schools, hospitals, and many amenities in the community we operate. Together, Oilserv and their community, were the better for this interaction.
