Demonstrating its steadfast commitment to social impact and child-centred advocacy, West Africa’s leading airline, Air Peace Limited, marked Children’s Day 2025 with resounding support for two remarkable events: the Parkland Amusement Centre Children’s Fiesta and Raising Star’s This Ability 4.0.
Both engagements championed a shared vision—celebrating all children and fostering inclusive spaces where every voice is heard and valued.
At the Parkland Children’s Fiesta held at Parkland Amusement Park in Lagos, the atmosphere was alive with colour, laughter, and unity.
Air Peace sponsored 40 children from underprivileged backgrounds, treating them to a day of excitement, games, and refreshments.
Alongside renowned brands such as Chocolate City, Mavin Records, and Ryno Auto, Air Peace stood out for its passionate advocacy for the dreams and aspirations of Nigerian children.
Simultaneously, the airline extended its support to This Ability 4.0, an annual initiative hosted by Raising Star at The Darlington Hall in Ilupeju, Lagos.
Themed “Empowering Every Voice,” the event placed children living with disabilities at the forefront, promoting awareness, inclusion, and empowerment.
The event featured a compelling lineup, including an art exhibition showcasing the creativity of children with disabilities, a talent competition encompassing fashion, music, and visual arts, a dance contest involving inclusive schools, and impactful seminars for parents, advocates, and educators.
Grants were also awarded to youth-led small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and young adults with disabilities to promote self-reliance and opportunities.
Among the dignitaries present were Lagos State Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Mr. Mobolaji Ogunlende, and actress Juliana Olayode, alongside major corporate sponsors including the Al.
