OUR INSPIRATION: THE LEGACY OF VERONICA ONYENEKE

The foundation was born out of the selfless spirit of Mrs. Veronica Ulumma Chinenyenwa Onyeneke, a woman of remarkable faith and compassion. Known for her deep love for others, she embodied the values of charity, kindness, and service to her community. Her life was a testament to the power of generosity, as she constantly provided for the less fortunate, empowered women, and supported struggling families.

Mrs. Veronica was a cornerstone in her community, known for founding charitable organizations such as Otu Dikwadoro, an initiative dedicated to helping families in need. Her leadership in various women's groups and her unwavering commitment to the welfare of others inspired those around her and left a lasting impact on her community.

It is in honor of her legacy that Rev. Fr. Charles Onyeneke founded the Veronica Onyeneke Foundation. The foundation carries forward her vision of helping the poor and marginalized, ensuring that her acts of kindness continue to inspire future generations.

Her favorite saying, “A good life is one spent in the service of others”, continues to guide the work of the foundation, serving as a reminder of the difference that compassion and service can make in the lives of others.
