International Widows Day which takes place on June 23 every year is a United Nations ratified day of action to address the “poverty and injustice faced by millions of widows and their dependents in many countries. WSC joins the rest of the world in celebrating this day.

The Pat Utomi Widow Support Centre operating under the trade name Widow Support Centre (WSC) was initiated in 1992 by Prof Pat Utomi through the PAT UTOMI TRUST FOR HUMANE CO-EXISTENCE to add value to the lives of widows and their children and also to help them overcome the burden and challenges they face due to the demise of their husbands.
