Akemi and Adaora Eriobu

Fundraising is one of their key passions. They have successfully raised funds for causes that often lack sufficient attention, including relief efforts for the earthquake in Syria and Turkey, as well as supporting those affected by the ongoing genocide in Congo.

The event provided a platform to explore how Germans can thoughtfully navigate current global conflicts.
Their diverse interests and dedication to combining their hobbies with meaningful impact reflect their unwavering commitment to social change. Akemi and Adaora are determined to continue making a difference in their community and beyond.
