About Us

A Trust Committed To Educating The African Child

read more

Established in 2018, Jed Child Trust is a fast growing non-profit organization dedicated to bringing quality education to children on the African continent.

Founded by individuals who have experienced firsthand the pains of struggling to get an education with limited finances and a failing society, we understand what inequality and being disadvantaged in education look like.

We have so far grown our operations in over five countries on the African continent, directly aiding 67,555 beneficiaries in 15 communities through our 7 online programmes. We have also partnered with various international bodies to make our dream of equal educational opportunities for the less privileged children in Africa a reality.

What We do

Our focus

icon

Education

As stated in our mission statement, our goal is to be at the fore front in the fight against inequality in child education. We want to give every child the financial and academic runway to achieve their dreams.
icon

Empowerment & Exposure

We empower children to leverage the resources at their disposal to build a life for themselves. We do this through programmes which are aimed at skill-building them with the skills and attitudes necessary for excellence.
icon

Equality

Children born into poor households should have the same access to the same opportunities that their wealthy counterparts have. Everybody deserves equal chances at success in life. We do this by providing them with resources such as school bags, books, pens and learning materials.
icon

Mental Health

As students and youths, navigating emotions can be a scary experience. We educate them and empower them to be resilient. Children's mental health is a priority and we aid by providing them with access to mental health support and workshops.

Ongoing Campaigns

Jed Child Trust Foundation is committed to alleviating the poor living conditions of less privileged children in Africa

School Outreach

Migrant Farmers' Community School Outreach

The classrooms were dilapidated and in need of repair. Our team noticed that most of the children wrote on old and turned-over notebooks, some had no pens and the majority wore handmade slippers. But this didn’t deter them, they were eager to learn.

What People
Say About Us

They say that until we choose to devote ourselves to a cause for the sake of humanity, we will be unable to comprehend the empty void seeking our attention or support. Volunteering with Jed Child Trust Foundation has been an awesome experience for me. It has helped me build my skills whilst working together with team members. It has been an awesome experience full of learning and recognition of a distressed world seeking our help.

Temidayo Oderinde, Volunteer

I strongly believe that education remains the most important tool to bring about societal progress. It is also evident that education can bring about the total transformation of a society, people, or kin. I am most happy to be engaged in driving Africa's development through education by being part of the JED Child Trust Foundation. Moreso, this organization has given me another opportunity to contribute to the future of African children. I am most grateful and also feel indebted for this opportunity.

Jonadab Chinonso Dinneya, Volunteer

I am James Adeniyi, a passionate lover of education and an enthusiast for an Africa in which all its children are educationally empowered. My passion and will to assist brought me to the Jed Child Trust Foundation, and I most sincerely appreciate Jed Child Trust Foundation for the opportunity given to me to volunteer with them. It is really a privilege, and I am very grateful. Thank you, Jed Child Trust Foundation, for this opportunity.

James Adeniyi, Volunteer

Honestly, I feel grateful that I got the opportunity to volunteer with Jed Child Trust Foundation. I can confidently say that I get so much out of volunteering here. From working with magnificent team leaders to a kind approach and guidance on things, I just feel relaxed while helping in building an educationally equal society for African children in the rural areas and suburbs. I really love helping people, and I sometimes feel I was born to care because I'm passionate about transforming Africa through education and technology. It is very satisfying to know that you are helping an African child have access to a quality education. I have made friends and have got real-life experience in helping humanity. On the whole, I feel very grateful and happy that I made this decision.

Ibrahim Kuforiji, Volunteer

My teachers always told us as kids to leave the world a better place than we found it. It all made sense as I grew up. How do I use my abilities to leave the world a better place if I am not wealthy but strong in will, energy, and strength? It is by giving myself to a cause that would make the world better. Equal educational opportunity is the call for me, and I therefore choose to volunteer with the Jed Child Trust Foundation. Working with the Jed Child Trust Foundation has been a very good experience for me. I've got to interact with volunteers from various parts of the world committed to a better African education. It has also exposed me to several opportunities, all of which I don't take for granted. Thank you, Jed, for this opportunity. I am delighted to contribute my quota to making Africa a better place.
