On Monday, September 15, 2025, Rangers International FC Foundation hosted a successful community-based engagement under its #MentorMe initiative at St. Theresa Catholic Church, Ugbodogwu Community, Trans Ekulu, Enugu, Southeast Nigeria.
Speaking after the event, the Chairman of Rangers Intl FC Foundation, Coach Ebere Amaraizu, expressed gratitude to the Carmelite Prisoners’ Interest Organization (CAPIO) for their support, which played a vital role in the success of the intervention targeted at teenagers—both boys and girls—within the community. He also commended the contributions of the Cope and Live Mental Health Awareness Foundation.
Coach Amaraizu explained that #MentorMe is a community-based initiative of Rangers Intl FC Foundation designed to reach children and young persons, particularly those who are vulnerable and at risk of engaging in delinquent behavior due to environmental and social pressures. He emphasized that the project is a problem-solving initiative that creates safe spaces where participants can learn, share, and grow.
The intervention featured activities such as psychosocial engagement, critical thinking exercises, brain health awareness sessions, as well as sports and physical activities. The collaboration was aimed at building resilience, supporting children’s mental well-being, and equipping them with skills and practical tools to overcome low self-esteem. Ultimately, the program seeks to transform mental and emotional challenges into strengths, enabling participants to make positive life choices and decisions.
