Video Description: The video (less than 4 minutes) above gives a highlight of the outreach to the orphanage on valentine day. The video was compiled and edited by myself ( @vic-essien ) …… Enjoy!

Yesterday 14th February 2018 the Uyo Steemit community (of which I am a member and administrator to the community) executed the much anticipated Steemit uyo cares project with the aim of expressing love to the orphanage children at the orphanage home in Uyo. We brought enduring smiles on the faces of the children on the special valentine day.

@ekjosh inspired the orphan kids to take their education seriously and have strong believe in themselves that they are of great value to the society.
We celebrated the Birthday of the orphans born in the month of February.
