Believing she is “a pen in God’s mighty hands, with which He writes love letters to the African orphans,” Dr. Reni Adebayo-Ige through her non-profit organization, Reni Ministries, created the African Orphans Educational Scholarship, through which she raises funds to educate and economically empowers some orphan children in Africa.
African Orphans Educational Fund had previously sponsored children and teens from Uganda, Mauritania and Burundi but currently sponsors some orphans in Nigeria and Sierra Leone, ranging from elementary to college levels.
In May of each year, RENI MINISTRIES honors mothers by giving them Recognition Awards in appreciation of the various ways they have given back to their churches and communities as a whole. Selected women from different occupations, whose roles are proven and well acknowledged, are invited to the National Motherhood Award Dinner for recognition and citation. The occasion is also used to sensitize them to the plight of orphans in Africa with the aim that they may serve as distant mothers to them, either through sponsorship or fundraising.
In partnership with Volunteers of America, a non-profit organization that caters to families in need of shelter, Reni Ministries host an annual Christmas Party in their facilities at Camden, NJ where families are sheltered. In addition to throwing a fun-filled creative party for the residents, Reni Ministries donates items, such as toys, diapers or children and adult clothings.
