Welcome to the HOW Foundation

We are the Herbert Onyewumbu Wigwe Foundation where we’re focused on building to enhance Africa. Join us in our mission to change Africa, one life, one community, one future at a time.

More than 15 million children are currently out of school in Nigeria, the majority being girls. It’s one of the worst cases in the world. 

UN Children’s Fund

Approximately 35% of Nigeria's youth are unemployed. It is one of the highest unemployment rates in the world.

National Bureau of Statistics

Nigeria only has four doctors for every 10,000 people. This scary reality calls for emergency interventions. 

World Health Organisation

This is what drives us to make a difference

None of this is acceptable to us at HOW Foundation and it's what motivates us to make a difference. It is also what has motivated our founder to develop
a vision to enhance Africa through impact in education, health and youth empowerment.
