Divatude Shop for Free: A Market Where Nobody Pays

Divatude Shop for Free is one of our signature initiatives: a free community market that gives families and vulnerable individuals access to essential items without financial barriers.

We have run it in a community at Okrika Waterside in Rivers State and in a community near Akwete, close to Aba.

Young people, elderly women and widows shopped freely for food items such as garri, rice and beans, as well as clothing, shoes, bags and dresses. There was no price tag. People came, chose what they needed, and went home with dignity.
