On 17th of January 2025, Mercury International Staff and Retailers Charitable Foundation donated food items worth twelve thousand leones (Le12,000) to the residents of Wilkinson Road, UN Drive community, West End of the capital.
Presenting the food items to the Community people, Yanshim Ibrahim Yansaneh – Website Operator, leader of the delegation, said, they were in the community to perform a simple but essential task delegated to them by management, as over the years Mercury has been and still does honour its CSR obligations/responsibilities and by extension contribute to development and nation building.
He further stated that similar donations to different communities across the country have been made. It’s with great humility that they did the same for the residents of Wilkinson Road, UN Drive community.

Receiving the food items, Mr Albert, the community coordinator, thanked Mercury International Staff and Retailers Charitable Foundation for their goodwill to his community, as this meant a lot considering the global inflation of prices of foodstuffs especially.
