Stanbic IBTC celebrates 200 children at 11th Together4ALimb Walk
About 200 children were on Saturday, November 15, 2025, celebrated at the 11th edition of the Together4ALimb Walk.
A flagship corporate social investment (CSI) initiative of Stanbic IBTC Holdings, a member of Standard Bank Group, the initiative focuses on underserved children aged 0 – 18 years, who are living with limb loss across the states in Nigeria by providing prosthetic limbs and Stanbic IBTC Education Trusts for the children. The event, which has become a hallmark of corporate social responsibility in Nigeria’s financial services sector, saw participants embark on a symbolic walk in Victoria Island.
Filled with energy and enthusiasm, the annual Together4ALimb Walk reaffirms Stanbic IBTC’s commitment to fostering inclusion and improving the lives of the beneficiaries. The event provided a shared sense of purpose as staff members, Together4ALimb beneficiaries, their parents and guardians, and major stakeholders walked in solidarity to raise awareness for limb loss and celebrated the remarkable courage and progress of the beneficiaries. The initiative represents a decade-long commitment to changing lives and creating opportunities for children who might otherwise have been marginalised due to physical disabilities.
This year marked a significant milestone as 64 new beneficiaries received prosthetic limbs, bringing the total number of children supported since the programme’s inception to 200. Beyond the prosthetic limbs, each beneficiary also received an education trust valued at N1.5 million to support their academic journey; ensuring that they have the resources needed to pursue their dreams and reach their full potential.
Speaking at the event, Chuma Nwokocha, Chief Executive, Stanbic IBTC Holdings, said: “To celebrate our 200 beneficiaries this year, we are telling the story of a journey defined by compassion and progress. Together4ALimb is more than an initiative – it is a promise to keep enabling futures and empowering children to thrive. Each child we support represents a transformed life; a family uplifted; and a community strengthened. We are honoured to continue this journey and look forward to touching even more lives in the years to come.”
Wole Adeniyi, Chief Executive, Stanbic IBTC Bank, added: “Each step we take during this walk is a symbol of shared hope and collective responsibility. We are proud to stand with the children benefiting from this initiative, and their families, as we continue to drive awareness around limb loss and inclusion across Nigeria. The Together4ALimb initiative embodies our belief that banking is about more than transactions. It’s also about transformation and making a meaningful difference in the communities we serve.”
