About Us

Our Story

Founded in 2002, Freedom Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming lives and communities through rehabilitation, education, empowerment and lasting social impact. We run critical programs such as House of Refuge, a substance abuse rehabilitation and recovery facility, Genesis House, a safe haven for survivors of sexual exploitation and Bethesda Child Support Foundation focused on providing tuition-free and quality education for underprivileged children in Nigeria. Guided by a vision of hope and restoration, we work to restore dignity, provide second chances and empower individuals to live productive and meaningful lives.

At Freedom Foundation, we shine light into broken places, giving hope and empowering people to rebuild their lives and transform their communities.
