The project by Nikki, is an ongoing initiative under her foundation, Angel 4 Life Foundation founded in 2012 in support of the International White Cane Day which holds on the 15th of October of every year.
Nikki Laoye, who has an adopted blind brother herself, seeks the donation and support of the public in buying ONE white guide cane or more, at 3,500 naira each.
