The collaboration, which represents a long-term commitment to social impact, will see Pinnah Foods funding the yearly rent and maintenance of a 30-bed Residential Learning Centre. Also, the company will provide essential school supplies for 100 children under the foundation’s School Enrollment and Back-to-School Initiative.

Beyond financial contributions, the partnership aligns with Pinnah Foods’ Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy, promoting employee volunteering and direct engagement to enhance the impact on beneficiaries.

Speaking on the initiative, Managing Director of Pinnah Foods, Shade Ogunleye, highlighted the company’s dedication to creating meaningful change in children’s lives. She said, “This partnership is more than just a collaboration; it’s a heartfelt commitment. At Pinnah Foods, we believe in creating meaningful impact, and we are excited to work with Destiny Trust to ensure that every Nigerian child has access to a safe environment and quality education.”

Similarly, Chief Executive Officer of Destiny Trust Children Foundation, Athina Jeje, stressed the importance of partnerships in improving the lives of vulnerable children. “Children deserve to experience childhood—to be in school, to be safe, to have fun, and to grow into responsible adults who contribute positively to society. The government cannot do it alone, and partnerships like this are essential in making a lasting impact,” she said.

Echoing this sentiment, the Chief Executive Officer of Pinnah Foods Limited, Foluso Ogunleye, reaffirmed the company’s commitment to driving positive change.

He noted, “This partnership represents more than just a collaboration; it is a commitment—a commitment to ensuring that more children have access to education, nourishment, and the support they need to thrive. At Pinnah Foods, we believe that success is measured not just by business performance but by the positive change we bring to people’s lives.”
