About us
ABOUT US
OMA Foundation is a non-profit, non-governmental and non-political Organization established with priority focus on disadvantaged women and children in the society.
Our focus area is informed by our deep belief in an improved society that raises the standard of living of women and children.
We are committed to improving the lives of women and children in local communities through education, health and economic empowerment. The foundation has a defined target group: rural women, the girl child, orphans and out of school children.
To ensure the standard of our programmes remain consistently high, OMA foundation engages only skilled and experienced professionals with the requisite capacity and competence for all our programmes and outreaches. Management periodically review skill sets and activities to improve the quality and performance of all Human and Material Resources. This makes our interventions both successful and impactful

HEALTH
Medical Intervention is one of our core pillars at OMA, and we have developed a variety of programs that help those who can’t afford medical insurance pay for some or all their medical bills. This is in addition to funds deployed to provide medical supplies, health infrastructure and basic health education to our teeming population.
EDUCATION
We provide basic education to the nation's most neglected children by developing a national network of educational support programs; reducing the illiteracy levels in children; and promoting the overall well-being of all children. With sound education, we believe these children are more likely to participate in the formal labor market and earn higher incomes.
WOMEN EMPOWERMENT
We provide empowerment and support to the nation’s most disenfranchised women by developing capacity building and livelihood sustaining programs; positioning them to take opportunities available in their environment and to create wealth with the knowledge and skills they gather from our intervention programs.
SKILL ACQUISITION
We at OMA believe that if the most economically vulnerable in society can be trained in sellable skills such as STEM, then they can quickly start earning a living even within their locality by starting small businesses with those skills. With this in mind, we have developed vocational skills training programs that help them become valuable contributors to society.
ORPHANAGE SUPPORT
We as an organisation are partnering with orphanages to build more care centres, refurbish old ones and provide funding for those currently overwhelmed. The children are not left out, as every single one of them will have access to our scholarship program and be eligible to for financial aid for secondary and higher education.
FOOD & TOY DRIVES
We make it a point of duty to remember those who can barely get by. Those who are unable to buy basic essentials like food to survive on, periodically receive care packages from OMA. We also help spread the holiday cheer to those in disadvantageous positions by bringing the children toys to play with, and the adults gifts to remind them that they are also loved and cared for.
