OUR BEGINNING

One morning in Festac changed everything.

On an ordinary Saturday, our founder went to tidy her church and returned through a crowd gathered around a kiosk. Inside lay a man’s body — and beside it, a small boy of eight, gripping his mother’s wrapper, asking over and over: “Who will pay my school fees now?” Within moments, the husband’s relatives stripped the kiosk of every possession. The widow was left with nothing — accused, bereaved, and alone.

That boy’s cry became a lifelong vow. For twenty years, our founder and her family privately supported widows and funded scholarships through their own schools in Lagos and Ogun State. That boy is now a university graduate studying abroad.

OUR MISSION

To empower underserved Nigerians — especially indigent students, young people, women and vulnerable households

OUR VISION

A Nigeria where every person, regardless of background or location, has equitable access to quality education, nutritious food, good health, clean energy solutions, decent work opportunities and justice — enabling resilient, peaceful and prosperous communities

WHAT WE DO

Six pillars of  transformation.

Every programme STEFO delivers is rooted in dignity, cultural sensitivity, and measurable impact — from classroom to community.

Education Support

Scholarships, school supplies, and learning resources for indigent students — because every child deserves a seat in the classroom.

Skills Development

Vocational training and livelihood programmes that equip young people and women with tools for economic independence.

Widow & Family Support

Advocacy and direct assistance for widows facing injustice, ensuring their families are not abandoned in moments of crisis.

Basic Needs Assistance

Providing food relief and essential support to vulnerable individuals and households during times of need.

Clean Energy Access

Affordable energy solutions that power homes, schools, and small businesses in underserved communities.

Youth-Led Advocacy

Empowering young people to become changemakers who promote inclusion, equity, and sustainable development.

TESTIMONIALS

Here is what our beneficiaries have to say

Indeed i enjoyed my participation in this reality show and my stay on the camp ground has increased my intellectual capacity. Despite the fact that some of us did not qualify for the next stage yet we were positively impacted through the sections in which we participated.

Our Partners

The supports that keeps on moving

As a membership organisation, we strongly believe in working through partnerships for long-term sustainability and continuous shared learning. We are strongly committed to promote partnerships as we consolidate our role of convening the organizations working in promotion of girls’ education in order to foster synergy and muster the authority to effectively engage with government.

OUR IMPACT

Numbers that tell a human story.

Through Christel Nursery & Primary School, Meir International College, and Mehof Group of Schools, we have given hundreds of children and families a second chance — privately funded for two decades before becoming a registered foundation.

Today, STEFO operates across Nigeria and extends into Africa, bringing the same care, rigour, and humanity that began in a
kiosk in Festac to communities that need it most
