Everlasting Fountain Welfare Initiative to build 500-capacity shelter in Ogun State

The Everlasting Fountain Welfare Initiative plans to construct a 500-capacity shelter in Obafe town, Ogun State, to address homelessness. Founder Abiola Adeniyi announced the project during its groundbreaking ceremony, stating that the facility, situated on seven acres, will also include a training center for skill acquisition. Adeniyi explained that her childhood experiences and the increasing number of homeless Nigerians inspired the initiative. The proposed facility aims to serve as a rehabilitation center, helping individuals rediscover their purpose and develop useful skills. Since 2021, the foundation has provided accommodation, paid school fees, and supported vulnerable individuals through programs like 'Youth Against Idleness.' The project also includes plans for a farming institute to train individuals in livestock and other agricultural areas. Beneficiaries will be selected without religious discrimination. Adeniyi urged government support for NGOs assisting vulnerable populations and thanked New Covenant Church and volunteers, promising transparency in managing public donations. Victor Adeniyi, Patron of the foundation, described the project as a dream realized through collective effort, envisioning it as a sanctuary for restoration and empowerment.
