How It Started
Our Story
Arise Nigeria Foundation was founded in 2018 by Ngozi Adeyemi, who witnessed firsthand the gap between the help people needed and the help that was available. Starting with a small food distribution effort in Mushin, the organisation grew quickly because the need was real and the community response was overwhelming.
Over the years, we have expanded from emergency relief into structured programmes in education, health, and livelihood — because we learned that sustainable change requires more than a one-time intervention.
Today, Arise Nigeria Foundation is a registered non-profit with a full team, a network of volunteers, and partnerships with government bodies, hospitals, and international organisations.
