About The Founder
Ikyaagba Tivfa Tony, from Ushongo LGA in Benue State, Nigeria, lost both parents at a young ageāhis father at 12 and his mother while he was in primary school. Despite these hardships, he learned auto mechanics to fund his education.
With support from a family friend, he was introduced to the Gidan Bege Orphanage Home in Makurdi, where he completed secondary school by 2013. Tivfa became known for his compassion and leadership while helping fellow orphans.
After school, he briefly reunited with family but returned to the orphanage to assist during a crisis and has remained there, dedicating his life to supporting the less privileged. Inspired by his experiences, he partnered with fellow orphan Isaac Terwuese Chia to start a humanitarian project focused on aiding orphans, widows, and vulnerable people. He continues to work at the orphanage while developing this initiative.
