Founded on Compassion, Driven by Passion: Empowering Rural Communities

Acorn Foundation for the Poor, a non-profit and non-governmental organization, was founded in 2020 with the primary goal of providing assistance and support to less-privileged individuals and communities. Officially registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) in Nigeria in 2022, our journey began with a group of passionate individuals who recognized the urgent need to uplift the less fortunate and create sustainable changes in their lives.

At Acorn Foundation, we’re dedicated to harnessing the life-changing power of Gender Equality, Equity, and Inclusion (GEEI) within society. As a vital part of our holistic approach to eradicating poverty and fostering social inclusion, we passionately champion GEEI as a fundamental initiative. Our mission is to create a more equitable and sustainable world, where every individual, regardless of their gender or social background, can thrive and flourish.

From an Acorn to a Mighty Oak

The name “Acorn” was chosen with careful consideration, inspired by the resilient strength of this small seed that grows into a mighty oak tree. It symbolizes our firm belief in the potential for growth and transformation within every individual, regardless of their circumstances, race, ethnicity, or religious beliefs.

Foundational Goals

From its inception, Acorn Foundation for the Poor has been propelled by a steadfast commitment to a well-defined set of objectives.
