This for Dr. Freeman Osonuga is his active civic participation in improving the state of the country one community at a time.
This edition of the DFO Foundation community charity outreach empowered over a hundred households in G Kappa Community as a support program for the needy especially in this difficult time, as a result, the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy with its attendant effect on the livelihood of the vulnerable Nigerian citizens.
This humanitarian event had in attendance the Nigerian award-winning entertainer Iledare ‘Jaywon’ Juwonlo, the popular ‘This Year’ crooner who was more than happy to associate with the DFO Foundation in the incredible impact the non-profit organization is making to improve the lives of Nigerians. Jaywon when interviewed mentioned that his heart has always been for the socio-economic growth of the people and sees the need to collaborate with Dr. Freeman Osonuga in putting smiles on the faces of underserved Nigerians.
DFO Foundation also partnered with F2 Capital, an arm of FirstFounders Incorporated to disburse seed funding to three Nigerian startups namely Heritage Couture, T-Majestic Gifts & Surprises, and Tomi’s Collections.
