Programmes That
Transform Lives
From scholarships and shelter to skills training and mentorship — everything we do is designed to give children and youth the future they deserve.
Holistic Support for Every Child
We believe that a child's needs cannot be addressed in isolation. True transformation requires tackling education, nutrition, shelter, and emotional support all at once — and that is exactly what RE Foundation does.
Our programmes are built on community trust, deep local knowledge, and a team of dedicated volunteers who show up every day to make a difference. No child is too far, and no need is too small.
Six Ways We Show Up
Each programme targets a specific dimension of need — together they form a complete safety net for Nigeria's most vulnerable children and youth.
Flagship
Scholarship & Bursary Programme
Our scholarship programme removes financial barriers to education by covering school fees, books, uniforms, and supplies for students who would otherwise be unable to attend. We identify bright, eager young people in underserved communities and walk with them all the way to graduation — and beyond.
Mentorship
Youth Mentorship Programme
We pair young people with dedicated mentors who provide guidance, career direction, and emotional support through life's most critical transitions.
Skills
Vocational & Skills Training
We equip out-of-school youth with practical, market-ready skills — from tech and digital work to trades and creative industries — so they can earn and thrive.
Shelter
Shelter Homes & Safe Spaces
For children with nowhere to turn, our shelter homes provide safety, stability, and a caring community — a place they can truly call home.
Nutrition
Food & Nutrition Support
Our daily feeding and nutrition programmes ensure every child in our care receives balanced meals — because learning begins with a full stomach.
Helpline
Community Helpline Offices
Our helpline offices are spread across 18+ cities so that anyone — parent, child, or community leader — can reach us any time they need support or a referral.
How We Deliver Impact
Identify Need
Our field teams and community partners identify children and youth most in need of support across urban and rural areas.
Assess & Plan
Each child is assessed holistically — we look at education, health, shelter, and emotional wellbeing to design the right support plan.
Deliver Support
We activate the right combination of programmes — from scholarships and meals to mentors and shelter — as quickly as possible.
Track & Grow
We follow up regularly, measure outcomes, and adjust our support so every beneficiary continues to thrive long term.
Education Is the
Great Equaliser
We believe that access to quality education is not a privilege — it is a right. Our education programmes reach children from primary school through university, ensuring that financial hardship is never a barrier to learning.
Beyond paying fees, we provide tutoring support, school supplies, mentors who check in regularly, and career guidance as students prepare for life after school.
- Full scholarship coverage including fees, uniforms and books
- After-school tutoring and academic support sessions
- University placement guidance and bursary extensions
- Parent engagement to build lasting household stability
A Place Called Home
For children who have lost their homes, been abandoned, or are at risk of harm, RE Foundation's shelter homes are a lifeline. Our safe spaces are staffed around the clock with trained caregivers and social workers.
We don't just provide a roof — we build a community. Children in our shelters attend our schools, eat from our feeding programmes, and are mentored by volunteers who genuinely care about their futures.
- 24/7 supervised safe shelter homes across 12+ locations
- Integrated schooling, feeding and psychosocial support
- Family reunification support where safe and appropriate
- Transition planning for youth ageing out of care
