Whilst celebrating her 30th birthday which she mischievously coined as “THE 3RD SYMPHONY ON THE KEY OF O” at a private party which held at the SWE lounge, City Mall, Ikoyi on the 19th of Dec 2010 , the charming songstress, Nikki Laoye, officially launched her three pet projects which had been kept under wraps for months.First is The “ANGEL 4 LIFE” PROJECT , a charity initiative created by Nikki, to raise funds and provide support services for the visually impaired community, orphanages and homes, local schools and needy individuals. Her first major beneficiary is the NigerWives Braille Production Centre, Kings College VI, who produce Braille books for blind students across Nigeria. Adeola, a representative of the centre, who is visually impaired, was a guest at the party as well.

Other beneficiaries of the project include the Precious Pearls Orphanage, Egbeda; Modupe Cole Home; Prison’s Ministry of House on the Rock Church as well as some visually challenged individuals whom Nikki personally supports already and many more. Now Nikki is on a roll to urge as many people as she can, to support this cause and be “angels 4 life”, along with her.
To further support this project, Nikki has also designed her very first hardcover notebook from her stationery line - “Scribbles! By Nikki Laoye”. These are a series of personally designed notebooks by Nikki and first out in print is a special A4L edition notebook, to be sold and its proceeds will go to the “ANGEL 4 LIFE” Project. The notebook, made in great print quality, was launched at the event.
Revealed at the party as well is Nikki’s alter ego, PAPARAZZI AUNTY. This is Nikki behind the camera lens as opposed to her being in front of the flashing lights. Taking up photography on a new level, Nikki has decided to take up her love for capturing images. She was recently the set photographer at the video shoot of upcoming R&B recording artiste, SugarBoy A1.

A party with a difference, Nikki turned all her guests into squealing kids for a while as lots of games including musical chairs, musical statues, charades and more were played amidst whoops, cheers and laughter with lots of food and cake.

A fun filled day and definitely a beautiful symphony it was for Nikki as she set up a new landmark for herself, just before the end of the year.
