ABOUT THE FOUNDATION
Emily Adetoro is a Non-Governmental Organisation that voluntarily dedicates time in helping the needy, the widows, widowers and orphans financially, spiritually, physically, health-wise and so on. It was founded by Adedokun Ololade Dorcas in the year April 2022.
The inspiration to begin the foundation emanated from her beloved Grandma, Mrs Emily Adetoro, who decided to remain a widow for 62 years after her husband died when she was at the age of 40, before she went to be with the Lord in 2016.
During her lifetime, she lived a godly and selfless life that served the children, grandchildren and the community at large, supporting the needy even when she was in a difficult situation. These ways and deeds of Grandma inspired the founder to continue the same legacy she had laid before she went to be with the Lord.
