Maam’s Helping Hands was created to celebrate and empower elderly Nollywood Actors/filmmakers who have dedicated their lives to the craft.
These individuals have greatly contributed to the Nigerian entertainment industry, but many face financial hardships in their twilight years, leading them to seek support from social media platforms and becoming vulnerable to exploitation. The MAAM’S Project aims to change this narrative by providing them with the financial assistance they deserve, ensuring they receive recognition and experience the joy of financial security.
MAAM’S Project aims to empower elderly Nollywood filmmakers by engaging them to produce films/series whose proceeds will be used to provide the following:
Financial security: The project will provide elderly thespians with a stable and secure financial future.
This will alleviate their financial burdens and allow them to meet their basic needs without worry.
Engagement: The project will create opportunities for elderly thespians to continue engaging with their craft. This will keep their passion for acting alive.
Healthcare: The project will address the healthcare needs of elderly thespians, ensuring access to quality medical care and necessary treatments.
Dignity and independence: The project will empower elderly thespians to make choices, live independently, and have control over their own lives.
Community: The project will foster a strong sense of community and support among elderly thespians. This will ensure that they feel valued and connected within their industry and beyond.
Pension Plan: The project will work with PFA’s to design a pension plan for filmmakers.
Together we can make them smile again.
Registered charity: Maam's Helping Hands.
