What We Do
Youth Empowerment
We are empowering young people by equipping them with skills to shape their futures. At Ike Okoli Foundation, we are committed to empowering the youth with the skills, tools, and resources they need to thrive.
Financial Aid
We create health awareness, help youths build character, and provide them with a lucrative source of income through sports.
We believe that access to financial resources should not be a barrier to success.
Empowering Communities
We are improving health and education in rural communities by equipping libraries and establishing healthcare centers.
Recent Projects
In October 2021, we transformed an abandoned government building in Akpugoeze,
Enugu State, into a digital skills center to empower local youth with the knowledge and tools needed to succeed in the tech industry.
To further our mission, we’re seeking dedicated volunteers – including youth corps and IT professionals – to commit 12-18 weeks to teach digital and entrepreneurship skills to the kids. We’ll provide free accommodation and a small stipend to show our appreciation for their invaluable contributions.
Studies have shown that social sports teams like football clubs help reduce youth involvement in crimes. We created Ikeokoli Foundation FC to discover talent, keep young boys away from crime, and empower players by investing prize money in them.
The skills and values learned through our club activities promote physical and mental well-being, teach basic life skills, and foster peace building to create positive change in Nigerian society.
We’re on a mission to equip primary schools in our communities with books on topics ranging from STEM skills to personal development. We aim to donate a full bookshelf to selected schools to enhance students’ academic achievements.
Additionally, we’re offering fully-paid secondary school scholarships to the best performing kids from our digital skills center. Join us in empowering our youth through education and access!
Upcoming Projects
Small Businesses Loans
We plan to offer microcredit loans to selected small and medium-scale business owners to help them expand their businesses.
With our partners, we’ll provide mentorship on business development, marketing, and more to ensure the loans yield the desired results.
These interest-free loans will improve their credit profiles and make them more eligible for financing from bigger institutions. By providing accessible loans, we can help small and medium-sized businesses thrive and become more successful.
