The Gbenga Fawehinmi Foundation (GFF) has, since its establishment in 2016, committed itself to the social and humanitarian development of the less privileged, especially children in Nigeria. The foundation is a non-governmental organization based in Nigeria and registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission.
GFF came about to close some of the socio-economical gaps in the Nigerian society. UNICEF, for instance, estimates that one in every five of the world’s out-of-school children is in Nigeria. This is so even though education is free in Nigeria but still unaffordable for the less-privileged. Not doing anything about it means we are leaving millions of vulnerable children and families with no chance to make a better life for themselves. GFF identified this educational gap as one of the significant challenges in Nigeria and therefore saw the need to offer these humanitarian services to the most vulnerable of the Nigerian society.
GFF has dedicated its work to one clear purpose: providing mentorship and scholarship to children in Nigeria. Over the past six years, the Foundation has worked with different learning institutions and grassroots level partners to touch thousands of lives of families and children who are in need through the provision of service, mentorship, training, entrepreneurial upskilling, and scholarships to children in need. Through our activities, we have impacted children in vulnerable communities to access proper education and have set in place plans to expand our reach in coming years.
The mission of GFF is to provide leadership, entrepreneurship skills, mentorship, and educational scholarships to vulnerable children and youths in Nigeria empowering them to overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. We believe that every child deserves access to quality education and the support they need to succeed, and we are dedicated to helping them develop the skills and confidence they need to achieve their career dreams, become leaders and entrepreneurs in their own right.
GFF envisions a world in which all children and youths regardless of their background or circumstances have the opportunity to succeed and contribute to the betterment of their communities and nation.
