WOMEN FOR GREATER GOOD
FOUNDATION
ABOUT US
At Women for Greater Good Foundation (WGGF), we are focused on all-round development of every woman. We are a registered non-governmental, non-political and non-profit making organization. WGGF was founded in 2015 to birth a new generation of reformed women. We advocate the rights of women/girls and more intentionally support women living with disabilities to live a fulfilled life. As our name implies, we give all necessary support and mentorship for women/girls to win through the society.
Our Vision
We envision a society where women are recognized as relevant and important personalities. A society where women are not afraid to speak up, be brave and take risks to pursue their own paths of success. We envision a society where women can fully develop their potentials, and a society where the government and leadership systematically support women to be in positions that are normally occupied by men.
Our Mission
Wggf is a strong independent female body, whose existence is to raise great-minded women who will be agents of transformation in Nigeria and the world at large. To bring women/girls to the realization of their potentials and provide aid for them to become and achieve their dreams and goals. To help, empower and encourage every woman or girl who is physically, mentally, financially and emotionally challenged.
