Lets spread some love this season and beyond, kindly Donate what you can and we will ensure it gets across to them".

The Angel Relief Fund aims to raise funds for the purchase of relief materials and other amenities for onward distribution to IDP camps and Refugee shelters across Nigeria which will be supervised by Angel 4 Life Foundation and the NCFRMI Southwest office.
