ABOUT GAAF FOUNDATION

About 20 years ago, tragedy struck our family as a husband, brother, uncle, son, and friend, Late Godson Afekhare Agbadua was diagnosed with Acute Renal failure which later led to his demise on June 30th, 2003.

​

Late Godson stood for the emancipation of humanity through education. To keep the legacy he passionately stood for all throughout his life, his entire family and in collaboration with those he impacted during his life founded the GODSON AFEKHARE AGBADUA FOUNDATION ( GAAF). 

​

GAAF Foundation is committed to advancing the local movement for education and community empowerment. Our journey began as a tribute to the late Godson Afekhare Agbadua during the 20 years Remembrance and Memorial Serive in his Alma mater, University of Benin. A visionary advocate for humanity's emancipation through education. The foundation's mission is to honor his legacy by promoting educational programs across all levels of education.

Since being established, GAAF Foundation has been involved in promoting various educational programs across all grades of education.  To immortalise the name of Late Godson Agbadua in his department, his former student through the EDGESTONE FOUNDATION has offered to cash award to the Best Graduating Student of the Department of Geography and Regional Planning of the University of Benin for two consecutive years.  Also,  Edgestone Foundation has offered scholarship awards to cover tuition and living expenses to an indigene studying Medicine and Surgery at Ambrose Ali University (AAU), Ekpoma in his name.

The GAAF has organised some quiz competitions and implemented school empowerment programs across Edo State. These efforts are just the beginning, and we are poised to launch several more initiatives to foster learning and growth within our community.
