Shelter is a basic necessity of life, whether for living, business or learning. Yet many across Nigeria have fallen into the social cracks where housing is nonexistent and homelessness is a daily reality. A tragedy of national dimensions.
Faced with this daunting challenge, many, including governments and several NGOs have cut their losses. But the Isabella Ayuk Foundation is a strong advocate of leaving no indigent person behind.
And in fulfilment of this commitment, IAF has constructed and renovated several buildings for less privileged groups across several communities.
- 10 classroom blocks were constructed in Ikom Local Government Area, Cross River State.
- One primary healthcare centre in Mabuchi, FCT, Abuja.
- One room restaurant for a food vendor in Nasarawa State.
- One bedroom apartment renovated for a widow in Cross River State.
- One bedroom apartment renovation for a widow in Nasarawa state.
- One bedroom apartment renovation for an indigent man in Nasarawa state.
IAF intends to scale up its housing programme in the future to capture at least 50 households annually, including more home and school renovations in the rural areas.
