A Word from the Founder

Amari Girls Educational and Empowerment Foundation was born out of a deep passion to see girls rise above every limitation — social, economic, or cultural — and step into their full potential.

Our foundation grooms girls who are not just academically excellent, but emotionally intelligent, entrepreneurially minded, and community-conscious leaders. Every girl deserves a chance to thrive, regardless of where she comes from.

Through scholarship support, skills acquisition, mentorship circles, and community outreaches — we are building a generation of women who will lead with purpose and lasting impact.

I invite you to join us. Whether as a donor, volunteer, or partner, your support directly changes lives and transforms communities.

Where It All Began

First Community Outreach

First Community Outreach in Ede, Osun State
Ede, Osun State

The Foundation held its inaugural community outreach bringing together girls from surrounding communities for a day of learning, inspiration, and empowerment.

Interactive sessions covered education, personal development, and career possibilities — led by experienced facilitators who shared their journeys and offered practical guidance.

School supplies, hygiene kits, and resource materials were distributed. The event identified girls in need of ongoing scholarship support and mentorship.

“We came to plant a seed — and the harvest is already evident in the eyes of these girls.”

— Dr. Omowunmi Jumoke Ogunleye
