Donko Care Foundation: Years of Service, Compassion, and Community Impact
For many years, Donko Care Foundation, founded by Mr. Roseson Francis Obasi (Donko) has been at the forefront of humanitarian service, reaching deep into communities to support the less privileged, uplift the vulnerable, and restore hope to those in need. Its work spans healthcare, welfare, community development, and youth empowerment.
Through its healthcare interventions, the Foundation has paid hospital bills for patients stranded due to financial constraints, funded life-saving surgeries, including a recent ₦600,000 support for a young woman in urgent need of an operation and provided timely assistance to individuals facing critical medical emergencies.
Its community support programs have included free transportation for travelers, regular visits to correctional facilities to assist inmates, giving out palliatives to struggling families, and swift responses to emergency needs.
The Foundation is also committed to youth skill development, offering training in Makeup and Gele Artistry. Upon completion, trainees are empowered with cash support and starter packs to help them launch their businesses and become self-reliant.
Beyond direct aid and skill training, the Foundation has promoted peace and unity through youth engagement. A few months ago, it successfully hosted the first-ever Donko Inter-Village Unity Cup, the largest football competition of its kind in the area. The tournament brought together 12 villages, with Ngwa Village emerging champions and receiving ₦750,000, Ohafia taking second place with ₦500,000, and Edda placing third with ₦250,000. Awards of ₦30,000 each were presented for Player of the Tournament, Highest Goal Scorer, Best Goal, and Best Goalkeeper.
From medical support to sports development, prison outreach to palliative distribution, and youth skill empowerment, Donko Care Foundation continues to demonstrate that consistent acts of kindness can transform lives and strengthen communities. Its track record stands as a testament to the power of compassion in action.
