Who We Are
The Grace Agbonlahor Foundation (GAF) is a women-led organization dedicated to transforming the lives of women and girls in Nigeria. Inspired by the remarkable journey of Madam Grace Agbonlahor, GAF was founded to create opportunities that empower women to rise above challenges, lead in their communities, and thrive in all aspects of life.
At GAF, we focus on three pillars: education, entrepreneurship, and advocacy. Through innovative programs and initiatives, we equip women and girls with the knowledge, tools, and resources needed to achieve personal growth, economic independence, and social transformation. We are committed to fostering a Nigeria where women and girls are confident, influential, and actively contributing to national development.
