West Child
ELIMINATING POVERTY THROUGH EDUCATION.
Formerly known as Wujuba Foundation, Inc.




Nigeria is home to millions of vulnerable widows and children,
facing immense challenges, including poverty, lack of education, and the consequences of abuse.
Research shows that education and skill-building are vital to breaking the cycle of poverty, offering both widows and children the tools to create a brighter future.
West Child is empowering through education to end poverty, unlocking a future of opportunity and prosperity.

Through collaboration with partners at various levels, we strive to transform education systems, promote economic opportunities, and tackle the root causes of poverty. Our mission is to uplift lives, nurture change, and create a brighter, more equitable future for all.
