Aidez-Moi Foundation primary guiding principle from the very beginning has been that community development must be comprehensive. It is not sufficient to simply build a school, establish a health clinic, or install a water pump. The success of any program targeting any specific sector (education, health, etc) depends on support from each of the others, whether directly or indirectly.
Aidez- Moi Foundation operates by helping communities through their own development programs and established institutions, recruit, train and work with the local community based organizations, institutions and/or individuals dedicated towards the development of that community, and work with them to establish a program to improve the living standard of their community.
Aidez-Moi Foundation is a Non Governmental Organisation which is committed to improving health and quality of life in Nigeria communities. The vision of the Aidez-Moi Foundation for the year 2019/2020 is encapsulated in the H.E.L.P. Initiative.
