Purpose

The ET Foundation is a foundation that was established in 2015 where the founder assisted people with different welfare needs. These needs included paying for tertiary students who couldn’t afford tuition fees, supporting small businesses who needed financial assistance as well as mentorship, orphanages that needed clothes and non-perishable food items, just to name a few

The foundation has been formally registered in 2021 with the aim of growing and assisting even more people. The founder has been assisting from his own pocket with no assistance from well established institutions. The requests that the foundation has been receiving from people who needs help keep rising and this is what drove the board members to decide to register the foundation formally since there’s a great need.
