Empowering lives through education, skills, and compassion. Providing solace, care, and hope for the aged and vulnerable in communities.
Educational Empowerment
Educational Empowerment stands as a cornerstone of Touch of Love and Lifting Hands Foundation’s transformative initiatives. We believe in the profound impact education has on breaking the cycle of poverty and shaping brighter futures. Through our sponsorship programs, we provide deserving individuals with access to educational resources, covering everything from tuition fees to essential supplies. This approach not only facilitates academic pursuits but also instills a sense of hope and possibility. We actively work to dismantle barriers hindering educational advancement, ensuring that every individual, regardless of their circumstances, has the opportunity to pursue and achieve their academic dreams.
Economic Empowerment
At Touch of Love and Lifting Hands Foundation, Economic Empowerment stands as a cornerstone of our mission. We believe in providing not just aid but sustainable pathways to self-sufficiency. Through initiatives like skills acquisition programs in baking and soap making, we equip individuals with practical skills that transcend traditional forms of support. These initiatives serve a dual purpose, fostering economic independence while creating opportunities for entrepreneurship. We witness firsthand the transformative power of these skills as individuals not only secure livelihoods for themselves but also contribute meaningfully to the community.

Advocacy and Recognition
Advocacy is at the heart of Touch of Love and Lifting Hands Foundation’s commitment to societal change. Led by our visionary founder, Engr. (Dr.) Atinuke Wuraola Owolabi, we actively advocate for good governance, equity, and increased representation of women in decision-making processes. This extends beyond rhetoric; it’s a call to action, addressing systemic issues that hinder progress and inclusivity. Our foundation champions the silent voices, embodying a spirit of compassion that transcends mere charity.
Recognition becomes a natural byproduct of our unwavering dedication. Engr. Owolabi’s accolades, including being named the “Humanitarian Ambassador” of 2021, Charitable Personality Award of Excellence Performance by Ifako-Ijaiye Community, and Social Impact Recognition Award by Lagos state Community Youth Development Initiative, underscore the impactful strides we’ve made in transforming lives and communities.
Community Impact
Touch of Love and Lifting Hands Foundation takes immense pride in our profound community impact, transcending mere assistance to become a catalyst for lasting positive change. Establishing leisure homes for the aged not only addresses their physical needs but also creates spaces for meaningful interaction, fostering a sense of unity and community. Impacting 5,170 lives, our holistic approach includes regular health checks, promoting overall well-being.
The ripple effect extends beyond direct beneficiaries, garnering acknowledgment and commendation from influential figures and political leaders. This recognition exemplifies our commitment to not only alleviate immediate challenges but also inspire collaborative actions and positive transformations within Ifako-Ijaiye and surrounding communities.
Aged Care Services
At Touch of Love and Lifting Hands Foundation, our commitment to the well-being of the aged is at the core of our mission. Through our Aged Care Services, we provide a nurturing environment, offering solace, care, and genuine companionship to the elderly. We go beyond conventional assistance by establishing leisure homes that serve as communal spaces, fostering interaction and overcoming isolation.
Regular health checks are an integral part of our Aged Care Services, ensuring the physical well-being of the elderly. Our goal is to create a supportive community that not only meets their practical needs but also enriches their lives emotionally. We believe in fostering a sense of belonging, love, and respect for the invaluable contributions of the elderly in our society.
