Projects
Through our partnerships with stakeholders and grantees, we’ve established the following programs:
Seasonal gifts:
Over the last 4 years, we have given seasonal gift boxes to members of the community within Lagos, Ogun, and Oyo state. These neatly wrapped packages include food items such as rice, gaari, beans, sardines, dry milk powder, sugar, oatmeal, and beverages. The goal of these gifts is to ensure that families are fed, particularly during religious holidays.
Pictured above are images of seasonal food packages from 2022 and 2023 with contents displayed in front of the boxes and an image of food items contained during another seasonal food package distribution.
Micro-enterprise:
Through this program, we provide micro-grants to small business owners to purchase essential equipment and/or further grow their businesses. These partnerships epitomize our vision of collective responsibility for collective good as the impact of these micro-enterprises reverberates through the entire community by (1) providing the grantees a sense of pride through continued work (2) providing the opportunity to hire others and (3) inspiring others to strive to establish successful businesses.

Educational Scholarships/Support:
Since 2018, we have supported individuals furthering their education in secondary school and beyond. This includes covering expenses for college entrance exams, assisting with fees for transcripts, purchasing equipment like stethoscopes or laptops, and support for tuition expenses. Through these partnerships with students and their families, we aim to reduce the fiscal barriers that often derail individuals from completing their education.

International Medical Mission:
We are currently establishing medical missions to provide health care to communities with limited access in Nigeria. The short term goal is to establish a clinic location that provides periodic basic healthcare screenings for conditions such as hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, and colorectal screening. The long term goal is to have a free standing clinic that addresses the daily, outpatient health needs of the community.
And many others:
This includes other programs including sponsoring a religious pilgrimage, donating a generator to a religious center, and assisting with health/medication expenses, and establishing a medication assistance program
