Our Official Mission

"To reduce poverty and improve quality of life in Akwa Ibom State — providing community relief, empowering families economically, and supporting individuals with developmental disabilities — by awarding grants, managing donor-advised funds, and strengthening the organisations that serve our communities."

Our Origins

MEWAYZ Community Impact Foundation was established to serve as a permanent charitable resource for Akwa Ibom State. Modeled on the community foundation approach, we pool donations from multiple sources and award grants to organisations that support individuals with developmental disabilities.

Our founders, Raymond Anwan Edet-Okon and Imaobong Bruno, recognised that sustainable community impact requires structured fund management, transparent governance, and partnership with local service providers. By formalizing as an Incorporated Trustee in January 2026, we committed to absolute transparency and structural integrity.
