The Noella Foundation, with support from friends and well-wishers, has launched a series of social impact initiatives across Nigeria in celebration of its co-founder, Seyi Tinubu, who turned 40 yesterday.
In a statement on Sunday, the Foundation announced that the commemorative projects would span healthcare, education, and entrepreneurship, reflecting Tinubu’s values of empathy, service, and collective responsibility.
Among the highlights is a healthcare initiative offering free medical insurance to 1,000 Nigerians, particularly pregnant women and individuals living with sickle cell disorder.
The Foundation will also distribute essential medication to sickle cell patients through partnerships with two reputable non-governmental organisations, Crimson Bow and Genotype Foundation.
In the education sector, the Foundation will distribute 200 laptops to public junior and senior secondary schools to promote digital literacy and improve learning outcomes.
It will also host a capacity-building programme for 40 young Nigerians in high-demand fields such as Software Engineering, Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, and Product Design, preparing participants for careers in the digital economy.
The Foundation’s entrepreneurship drive will see the donation of 40 SME Empowerment Kiosks across the country, aimed at promoting small business growth, stimulating local economies, and fostering self-reliance among young Nigerians.
The statement described the initiatives as a celebration of purpose that extends beyond personal milestones into meaningful impact.
“Marking Seyi Tinubu’s 40th birthday through initiatives that empower communities and support vulnerable groups reflects the values he embodies.
“This celebration is powered by friends and well-wishers who have come together under the Noella Foundation to make a difference when and where it matters most,” the statement said.
According to the Foundation, the initiatives reinforced its mission to promote sustainable social development through partnerships that uplift individuals and communities nationwide.
“This milestone is a reminder that leadership is best measured by the lives we touch,” the Foundation noted.
“Through collaboration, we can transform celebration into service and goodwill into progress.”
Founded on the belief that transformative change is a collective effort, the Noella Foundation focuses on four core pillars; Education, Employability, Healthcare, and Hunger Eradication, which aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
