We envisage an Africa where everyone, especially the youth, is an active player in facilitating development and civilization through charity, volunteerism, brainstorming and innovation; hinged on collaborative efforts and partnerships at local, national and international levels. Our mission is to deploy philanthropic strategies to promote sustainable rural development through individual and institutional capacity building, as well as infrastructural development among rural dwellers with emphasis on, but not limited to remote rural settlements.

Social impact Statement
Since 2019, we have reached out to 174 villagers in Agele and Mogba villages, Eruwa, Oyo State, where we embarked on a ‘Charity Outreach’ to ameliorate poverty in those remote and underserved villages. With a special focus on women and children in the targeted communities, we distributed gift items and household materials.

We reached out to a total of 76 adults during a “Medical Outreach” to improve the health status of the dwellers of Agele and Mogba villages, Eruwa, Oyo State. The medical team which comprised of a Doctor, Pharmacist, Medical Lab Specialist and other health Volunteers, engaged in various activities.

We provided free school uniforms and back to school items to 30 pupils in St. Timothy RCM Primary School, Amuloko village, Osun State, Nigeria. Those pupils previously wore mufti to school because their parents couldn’t afford a uniform.
