IA-Foundation has raised N30 million at its recent Annual Charity Gala in London, reinforcing its commitment to tackling the growing crisis of out-of-school children in Nigeria.
According to our Founder, Mrs. Ibironke Adeagbo, the funds will directly support key education initiatives, including the Sponsor a Child programme, bursary scholarships, and the distribution of school uniforms and learning materials across Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones.
“These efforts target the most vulnerable—girls, children with disabilities, and those from low-income families—to ensure no child is left behind,” she said.
She thanked Femi Falana SAN and Mrs. Abike Dabiri-Erewa for their ongoing support, and commended the political will of President Bola Tinubu and the commitment of Education Minister Dr. Tunji Alausa.
Chairman Mr. Diran Femi-Famakinwa described the out-of-school crisis as a moral issue that fuels generational poverty.
Dignitaries at the event included Amb. Mercy Haruna-Adeoye, Mayor Naima Ali, and Mayor-Elect Sunny Lambe.
IA-Foundation remains focused on providing access to quality education and reducing Nigeria’s out-of-school population through sustainable, donor-driven impact.
