INTELS Nigeria Ltd., a major oil and gas logistics company, marked another milestone as it graduated 85 beneficiaries from its Women Empowerment Project Scheme Synergy (WEPSS). The ceremony, held on Friday, celebrated women trained in tailoring and fashion design from INTELS’ host communities in Onne, Ogu, and other parts of Rivers State and the Niger Delta region.
As part of its commitment to social responsibility, INTELS also donated 1,000 garments to the Joint National Association of Persons with Disabilities (JONAPWD).
Established in 2013, WEPSS aims to empower 5,000 community women over a 20-year period through training in fashion design and tailoring. The program, which trains and empowers women in two batches annually, has so far benefited over 1,800 women.
