Stanbic IBTC’s Together4ALimb Initiative Reaches 200 Beneficiaries

Stanbic IBTC Holdings, a member of the Standard Bank Group, has announced that its flagship Corporate Social Investment initiative, Together4ALimb, has reached a milestone of 200 beneficiaries since its inception in 2015.

According to the bank, the initiative, which supports underserved children aged zero to 18 living with limb loss, provides beneficiaries with custom-fitted prosthetic limbs and an education trust fund of N1.5 million each. The bank stated that in 2025, 64 new beneficiaries will receive support under the programme.

The chief executive of Stanbic IBTC Holdings, Chuma Nwokocha, said, “We are not just fitting limbs for underserved children living with limb loss; we are also enabling futures. Our Together4ALimb initiative reflects our belief that every child deserves an equal chance to live fully and pursue their dreams.”

Additionally, Wole Adeniyi, the chief executive of Stanbic IBTC Bank, emphasised the essence of Together4ALimb as a symbol of shared humanity. He said, “As we walk with the children who continue to receive our support until they reach 18 years, we are reminded of the power of collective compassion and the impact of consistent support.”

According to the statement, “Since its launch in 2015, this transformative programme has brought hope and opportunity to children across Nigeria living with limb loss. Every story has a heart, and for the children of the Together4ALimb initiative, that heart beats loudly with determination. The journey to this milestone has been one filled with challenges and triumphs, but the heart of the initiative remains unwavering — it extends far beyond mobility; it is about restoring confidence and nurturing potential.

“One of the most remarkable aspects of Together4ALimb is its ability to transcend geographical boundaries. Stanbic IBTC proudly held the 11th edition of its Together4ALimb Walk on Saturday, 15 November 2025.

The event, which has become a significant highlight of corporate social responsibility in Nigeria’s financial services industry, featured participants taking part in a symbolic walk in Victoria Island. Beyond restoring physical mobility, Together4ALimb is also a gateway to quality education, allowing children to dream of brighter futures. The programme’s comprehensive approach considers both the physical and educational needs of vulnerable children, ensuring they are well-prepared for long-term success. It is a holistic endeavour rooted in the belief that every child deserves not only the freedom to move but also the opportunity to learn and grow without limits. As Stanbic IBTC celebrates this significant milestone in supporting its 200 beneficiaries, the commitment to expand its impact remains steadfast. The Together4ALimb initiative embodies a profound belief that every child deserves a chance to thrive beyond their circumstances and challenges.”
