We are the Bright Relief Foundation (formerly known as SheHelpz Africa and The Bright Initiative), a Non-Profit Organization based in Ketu, Lagos, Nigeria.
Our community projects are actively carried out in the Ejigbo , Ketu, Isolo, and Iju communities of Lagos, Nigeria.
We commenced activities on a very small scale in the year 2013 in Ejigbo, catering to young girls and kids in that community. Our founder, Esther Mojisola Fabunmi found a need and started out with what she had and could get from family and friends.
In 2018, we decided to make public our community projects and charity activities.
Our mandate is to bring relief in form of feeding, clothing and funding to those who are really in need of them.
We have successfully done this for the past 12 years, first on a very small scale then on a bigger scale and more regularly.
