our impact
By investing in our community, our global reach has improved access to education and alleviated food insecurity.
Lack of education, impure water, and food insecurity are some common social issues our world faces today. Our work addresses these challenges globally by providing education, essential resources, and opportunities for empowerment. With your support, we strive to create positive change and reach our goal of building stronger, more resilient communities.
Our projects
Clean Water
Our goal is to install boreholes, which are deep, narrow wells drilled into the ground to access clean, safe drinking water. This sustainable solution enables families to have safe drinking water, improve hygiene and sanitation practices, and reduce waterborne diseases. We hope to begin this project in Fall 2025 with the help of our generous donors. Your support can make a significant difference in the lives of countless families by providing them with this essential resource.
Education
The Education Sponsorship Program aims to break the cycle of poverty by providing children from marginalized backgrounds in both the United States and Nigeria with access to quality education. Currently, we are sponsoring the education of two children, but our goal is to sponsor at least 20 children by the end of Fall 2025 with the help of our generous donors. This initiative is crucial for enabling children and adults to gain the education they need to improve their lives and contribute positively to their societies.
food distribution
In March 2024, we launched our food distribution project, providing 100 5kg bags of rice, 100 one-liter cans of vegetable oil, and 200 cans of tomato paste to 100 families in Benin City. Continuing our efforts, in June 2024, we distributed an additional 250 bags of rice, vegetable oil, garri, and other staple food items to families in Lagos. By addressing immediate needs, we are easing financial burdens for these families, albeit temporarily.

Bisola's story
Meet Bisola, a resilient woman who has faced significant challenges with grace and determination. Despite losing one of her legs and relying on crutches to get around, she remains hopeful and strong.
Her Story
Bisola’s average day involves navigating the bustling streets of Lagos, a task made even more difficult by her physical condition. Our organization's creative director first encountered Bisola while grocery shopping. Struck by her situation and moved by compassion, he felt a deep desire to help her. During our Lagos food distribution outreach, we decided to reconnect with Bisola and offer our support.
During this outreach, we provided Bisola with essential food items and ₦ 100,000 naira to help alleviate her immediate needs. Additionally, we learned about her aspirations to go back to school and start a business selling baby items. Inspired by her dreams, we are committed to helping Bisola achieve her goals.
How can you help?
Bisola dreams of furthering her education and starting a business to sell baby items. We invite the public to assist her by donating to her cause and supporting her journey towards a brighter future. Your contributions can make a significant difference in her life and many others we aim to serve.
