Empowering young girls to rise with confidence, purpose, and opportunity—on and off the court.
VQBF is a nonprofit organization committed to the holistic development of young girls across Nigeria. We believe that true empowerment starts with providing the right tools and a supportive community.
The foundation uses basketball as a powerful tool for transformation, alongside education and vocational empowerment programs, to create a lasting, sustainable impact in the lives of girls from underserved and grassroots communities.
“To empower young girls through basketball, education, and life-changing opportunities, building their confidence, discipline, and leadership to create pathways for personal and economic growth.”
“A future where every girl has access to opportunity regardless of her background, becoming a confident, skilled, and empowered young woman who contributes positively to society.”
Providing a holistic ecosystem for development and growth.
Training, competitions, mentorship, and leadership through sport.
Providing faith-centered guidance that empowers girls to thrive spiritually, mentally, and emotionally.
Vocational skills like hair braiding and tailoring, plus entrepreneurial training.
Grassroots engagement, community clinics, and local empowerment initiatives.
The pillars that guide our every action and decision.
“Many girls across Nigeria face significant barriers to education, sports, and skill development. These barriers often lead to limited opportunities and a cycle of poverty.”
VQBF exists to bridge this gap. Every program we run; from grassroots clinics to vocational workshops, is designed to create lasting impact, not just temporary support. We are building the next generation of leaders.
