Who We Are

We are a community of people who believe in the dignity of every human. We are convinced that hope is a basic need of every man – young and old. We therefore put our intellectual and material resources together to make that happen. We are a community because we collaborate with individuals and corporate bodies and organisations to gather hope, materials, strength, resources, love, faith and life, and then we redistribute to souls within our community. We hold that our families and society should never run out of hope and faith and love and strength and basic needs of life. We have taken it as our irretrievable responsibility to design the future we want to see for our community

Why We Do What We Do

We are convinced that the basic needs for life are inalienable rights We hold ourselves responsible for the welfare of our neighbor and community and nation Some of us have experienced pains and insecurity of lack; and our experiences have birthed in us the burden of responsibility for the welfare of others. Above all, we are compelled by the love of Christ to ease the pains of others, to alleviate poverty and lack. We do what we do because that is who we are.

What We Have Done So Far

It all began as a personal effort by the founder, Samuel Akinbodunse, to ease the burden that widows, single mothers, unemployed youths face; and the tears of joy and appreciation that followed. It became clear that the things we take for granted are luxuries to others. Thenceforth, the vision was birthed to reach more and more widows and women and young people who want to go to school. The Samuel Akinbodunse Foundation spends an average of one million Rand annually to support widows, on scholarships for indigent pupils and students, and donations to orphanages.
