DRN Foundation — Destiny Redemption Network Foundation — is a registered Nigerian non-profit serving communities across Lagos.
DRN Foundation began the way most small Nigerian foundations begin: a group of people who could not walk past a need, and a food drive that was supposed to be a one-off.
The list of names grew. So did the work — school fees, uniforms, vocational training, medical camps, emergency relief for families who lost everything at once. Today the foundation runs six live programmes across Lagos communities.
We have stayed deliberately small. Every household we support has been visited before they are added to a list. Every school fee is paid straight to the school. Every parcel is photographed and numbered on distribution day.
Three statements we actually use to decide what to fund and what to turn down.
To relieve poverty and hardship in Nigerian communities through food, education, vocational training and health support — delivered directly, and accounted for openly.
A Nigeria where a child’s future is not decided by the family’s bank account, and a woman with a skill can feed her own household.
Honesty about what we can and cannot do. Dignity for everyone we serve. Records for every naira and dollar that passes through our hands.
A small leadership team, backed by volunteers who give their Saturdays.
Leads the foundation’s vision and keeps every programme anchored to the communities it serves.
Runs the school support register and the vocational cohorts, term by term.
Builds the volunteer teams behind every food drive, medical camp and distribution day.
Keeps the books clean, publishes the annual report and signs off every disbursement.
Anyone can say they fed 150 families. The question a donor should ask is: which 150, where, and on what date?
