Welcome to the Willi Johnson Foundation (WJF), a beacon of hope and empowerment since 2006. We are a non-profit, non-religious, non-political, and non-racial organization dedicated to fostering economic and socio-cultural empowerment across diverse communities. Our mission extends to women, men, youth, children, and people with disabilities, ensuring no one is left behind in our journey toward a brighter, more inclusive future.

Who We Are

At the heart of the Willi Johnson Foundation lies a voluntary spirit driven by compassion and a commitment to change. Established and registered in May 2006 with the Ministry of Women Affairs in Edo State and subsequently with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) in Abuja in July 2007, WJF is built on a foundation of trust and integrity. Our organization is governed by a dedicated Board of Trustees, comprising five esteemed members who guide our mission and vision.
