Across the Globe, We Are United in Our Dedication to Building Better Communities
Who We Are
Partnering to build a world where our poorest people lift themselves out of hunger and poverty
The Ihonvbere Foundation is a private, independent grant making institution dedicated to helping groups and individuals foster lasting improvement in the human condition in Nigeria and Africa. Through the support it provides, the foundation fosters the development of knowledge, nurtures individual creativity, strengthens institutions, helps improve public policy, and provides information to the public, primarily through support for the empowerment of women and young people.
The foundation strongly believes in the power of communities in both human and national development, and is mainly focused on education and the empowerment of civil society. We hope to focus on the encouragement of the building of content publishing systems designed for quickly creating highly interactive multi-language educational web sites, on-line communities, media portals, blogs and e-learning applications.
The Foundation benefits in its work from diversity at all levels of its operations. In working with other organizations and individuals, the Foundation values those who under-stand and share its commitment to diversity.

The Foundation believes its grant making is most effective when focused upon a relatively few areas of work, combined with sufficient resources over a long enough period of time to make a measurable difference. The Foundation hopes to make grants and loans through some comprehensive programs.
