Our Story
BRIEF HISTORY The founder was from a divorced home and both her and her late sister always talked about how they could help poor children and their mothers that couldn’t provide for themselves. They were always thought by their parents to be grateful for what they had and knew that not all kids could afford the day to day necessities like food, clothing etc. PEF is not just a project for the founder Jennifer M. Akporehe, but she sees it as a way of fulfilling a dream that she and Pamela once shared. It is a charity very close to her heart because of the history it carries and the meaning it has. “Pamela Erere Foundation to me is an extention of my sister; I will treat it like I would her” Jennifer M. Akporehe OUR INSPIRATION The Pamela Erere foundation (PEF), was founded by Chairperson Jennifer Mairo Akporehe. Named after her late older sister Pamela Ereremena Emerhana who before her premature demise had a passion for helping others. HOW IT WORKS The PEF helps provide basic amenities such as food,clothing,shoes, bags, books, household items etc. that is donated by supporters of the charity in the United States and Nigeria. These items may be used or new and will be distributed to the needy women and children throughout the year.(This is our most popular aspect of the giving process) Children’s fees would also be paid and for those who want to learn handwork like carpentry, tailoring, hairdressing etc. The foundation would also assist. Children would also be encouraged in extracurricular activities like sports, music, dance, art etc. Women would be encouraged to become independent by acquiring their High School Diploma. Vocational training would also be sponsored. Once they can earn a living, they would get off the program making room for other needy people. Mentorship classes would be held by positive role models, celebrities, public speakers etc periodically.
