Our History
Women Wealth Builder Foundation was born from a deep compassion for women facing financial hardship, particularly single mothers struggling to provide for their families. Founded by Mrs. Zulykha Akinjobi, the organization began as a small community initiative in Lagos, providing basic financial assistance and emotional support to a handful of women in desperate need.
What started as informal gatherings and modest donations quickly grew into a structured foundation as more women reached out for help. Recognizing the scale of the challenge, the foundation expanded its programs to include vocational training, healthcare support, and educational scholarships. The first major project—empowering 45 widows in Mushin with tailoring skills—demonstrated the transformative power of sustainable support over one-time handouts.
Today, Women Wealth Builder Foundation operates across multiple Nigerian states including Lagos, Kano, Oyo, Rivers, and Abuja. With over 460 beneficiaries supported, 185 women trained, and 600+ volunteers and partners, we have grown into a movement of hope and transformation. Our programs have evolved to address diverse needs—from feeding single mothers in Ajegunle to providing cancer treatment support at LUTH, from microfinance for market women to digital skills training for young women. Every success story fuels our commitment to reach more women who need our support.
