The Okewetan Charity Foundation is a non-profit organization founded on June 1st, 2024, in loving memory of our daughter, sister, and friend, Okeoghene Wetan—a radiant soul whose life was tragically cut short on September 1st, 2023, by some Murderers who went into her family home and strangled her to death in Lagos. Her untimely death remains a deep wound in our hearts, made even more painful by the absence of justice. As a fatherless young woman, her voice was unheard, and her story ignored. In fact, Nigeria happened to her. Oke, an alumna of Covenant University, lived a life marked by kindness, grace, and quiet strength. She was amiable, lovable, hospitable, and beautiful—inside and out. Her dreams were vast, her heart generous, and her presence unforgettable. In honor of her legacy, we established the Okewetan Charity Foundation to transform our mourning into ministry. Our mission is to support orphanages, fatherless young adults, and widows across the globe, just as Oke would have done with joy and compassion.

• Support education by helping pay school fees for children
• Establish vocational training centers for fatherless youth and widows, offering skills in tailoring, catering, hairdressing, and IT

​The Story:

A Promise of Dignity

"In late 2025, our team visited a local orphanage in Abuja that we have long supported. We went expecting to share food and some joy, but we left in tears. When we were shown the children’s living quarters and the sanitary facilities, the condition was beyond deplorable—the toilets were broken, unsanitary, and a direct threat to the health of every child in that building. ​I remember looking at the faces of these children and realizing that while we were  always providing food all these while, they were living in an environment that stripped them of their basic dignity. In that moment of heartbreak, I made a promise to the owner and the children: We will fix this. ​Since that day, I have had sleepless nights because that promise remains unfulfilled due to a lack of resources. Every 'hunger call' I receive from a widow, a call for rents or shop evictions, unpaid school fees, critical health issues that needs my attention, or an update from that orphanage reminds me that time is running out. This grant is not just a financial request; it is the key to fulfilling a promise and ensuring that 'OWF Vision 2026' starts with a foundation of health, safety, and human dignity for the most vulnerable among us."

Okewetan Charity Foundation is moving from temporary Outreaches to Permanent Impacts. We are building the Vision 2026 Food Bank & Vocational Center on our 200x200m site in Delta and another Plot of land site in Abuja. We have supported 300+ Widows so far—Now we’re building a home for that Mission. Would you like to be a 'Foundation Partner' with a seed gift today?
