About the Scholarship Provider:
The David Oyedepo Foundation, sometimes known as DOF, is a charitable organization that focuses on helping children and young people. The David Oyedepo Foundation is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to raising persons and platforms that would in turn bring about change to the economics of Africa as a continent and, by ripple effect, the rest of the world. This change would be brought about through the David Oyedepo Foundation. The David Oyedepo Foundation (DOF) was established by Dr. David Oyedepo, who also gave his name to the organization. His early education was received in Nigeria, and he went on to receive a PhD in Human Development from the Honolulu campus of the University of Hawaii in the United States. In addition to that, he is the President and Founder of David Oyedepo Ministries International, which is an umbrella not-for-profit organization that gave birth, amongst other things, to Living Faith Churches all over the world. The David Oyedepo Foundation is a Christian non-profit organization that is dedicated to sharing the love of Christ to the world by establishing platforms that would bring about change to the economy of Africa as a continent and, through ripple effect, to the rest of the globe. This is the mission of the David Oyedepo Foundation.
They, as an organization, have made it their mission to show people all over the world the love that Jesus Christ has for them through the various programs they offer and everything else they do. Their activities are the product of a deep affection and a burning enthusiasm for seeing the African continent transformed from a largely “third-world” region into a leading power on the global stage. They are of the opinion that, as citizens, it is their duty to take individual responsibility for the reforms that they want to see implemented in the various countries and on the continent as a whole. Dr. David Oyedepo and his wife, Pastor Faith Oyedepo, have contributed more than one billion Nigerian naira (N1 billion) of their own money for the improvement of educational opportunities in Africa.
