Hi Evamii, My name is Funso Osuntokun and currently employed with a faith-based (This Present House, Lekki) Non-Profit Organization known as "Freedom Foundation which is based here in Lagos-Nigeria at 1st Floor (Nurses House), 43 Afribank Street, Victoria Island, Lagos. In a nut-shell, let me give you a brief on what we do: FREEDOM FOUNDATION Pioneering Human Security Rehabilitation. Education. Empowerment. Freedom Foundation is an NGO which was set up in 2001 to carry out the mandate of pioneering social reformation within our communities. It was established as a faith-based non-profit organization committed to affecting society by empowering individuals who are affected by various categories of social and economic disadvantage. We seek to create a growing and sustainable sphere of influence by actively engaging social ills at their roots and by working with government, other NGOs, civil society organizations and corporate institutions to ensure the delivery of human security services at the greatest points of impact. These individuals include economically disadvantaged and vulnerable men, women and children, all of whom have the right to participate fully in the process of governance; the right to equal development as well as the right to enjoy access to vital resources and the basic necessities of life. They also have the right to be protected against poverty and the right to access basic social services, such as education and health. The aim of our human security framework is to safeguard the security of individuals, families, communities and the state socially, economically and consequently, politically. Freedom Foundation was conceived to proffer solutions to the ever mounting and staggering challenges within our society. We aim to advance the virtues of charity, justice, responsibility and integrity which represent the cornerstone that undergirds all our programs and initiatives. The Foundation was registered at the Corporate Affairs Commission, Abuja, Nigeria as an Incorporated Trustee on 13th May 2004. A number of units have been established within the Foundation to serve as tools for affecting social reintegration, rehabilitation and empowerment of identified vulnerable groups. House of Refuge and Genesis House: programs and facilities for rehabilitation of drug dependent individuals and prostitutes. Bethesda Child Support Agency and the Berean Institute: breaking the cycle of poverty through the provision of qualitative child education at Bethesda and adult education at the Berean Institute. Freedom Funds & KSF Microfinance Bank Limited: alleviation of poverty through financial and economic empowerment. I came across your post on nairaland and i would very much like you to work with us come any time you are in Nigeria. Our website is under development but you can see what we have on: www.freedomfoundationng.org Please feel free to ask any questions you want to ask by contacting me at: f.osuntokun@freedomfoundationng.org. You have a lot you can do for us and gain from you as well, so send me an email. Anticipating your soonest reply. |
