However, the UAF’s kindness didn’t end there. Understanding the value of education as a means of securing a better future, the foundation went above and beyond by offering top students from these schools free registration for the upcoming WAEC exams.
The UAF’s dedication to developing young talent and enabling them to realize their full potential is demonstrated by this gesture of removing a substantial financial barrier for worthy students.

Furthermore, the Umar Abdulrasheed Foundation offered assistance to female entrepreneurs because it recognized the critical role that women play in society.
By providing women with financial grants to support their companies, the foundation enables them to become financially independent and enhances the community’s general economic well-being.
The Ilorin community expressed deep gratitude to the Umar Abdulrasheed Foundation for their Valentine’s Day kindness.
Many others found resonance in the UAF’s activities, which demonstrated the strength of charity and its capacity to change lives. In addition to offering immediate assistance, the program sowed the seeds of opportunity and hope for the future.
The young philanthropist’s commitment to changing the world is demonstrated by the significant Valentine’s Day acts of the Umar Abdulrasheed Foundation.
