We are a non-profit organisation providing empowerment and support to African families in need. African Family Support Foundation was established after Stella Okeke, the founding member of the organisation, used her own money to help needy people in 7 states in Nigeria, with small amounts of money to start up their own businesses. The feedback was so encouraging that she decided to replicate this in other African countries and to support the work through fund raising. We now work with various agencies including Local Authority Social Services, the African Embassy welfare section and other networking organisations. We also source funds, raise awareness and engage on programmes and projects that focus on health problems which have serious social and economic significance for Africans and Africa.
