Who we are

The 21 Foundation is a non-governmental institution set up to provide a platform for other charities who are doing noble and worthwhile causes which makes a difference in the lives of members of society while promoting a healthy lifestyle.

The 21 Foundation holds the annual Fundraising Event, the 21km Challenge to raise funds for the different listed causes/charities. Participants can walk, jog, run or cycle for this event.

Our Vision

We envision a Nigeria where every citizen has equal access to opportunities, education, and healthcare.

Our Mission

To uplift and empower communities across Nigeria, our mission is to strategically raise funds to address pressing social challenges, fostering sustainable development and leaving a lasting impact on lives

How we run

The 21 Foundation operates a model where participants can choose the charity/cause they wish to support and raise funds to support that charity/cause. Over the last 8 years, participants at the Foundation’s annual event have consistently supported the United for Kids Foundation, The heart of Gold Hospice, the treatment of cancer patients amongst others.

As we approach the end of the year, let us make a difference and touch the lives of those around us that need our support. While doing this, let us have fun and keep fit. Choose a personal physical challenge and financial target to make a difference. Get as many of your family and friends to sponsor your walk/jog/cycle.

Our numbers that speak
