The Story Behind Our Foundation

At Martaba Development Resource Foundation (MDRF), we are driven by the mission to restore the dignity of these vulnerable households. As a national non-governmental organization registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission, we focus on addressing the root causes of poverty across multiple sectors. From food security and health to education, gender equality, and environmental management, our initiatives aim to improve the well-being of the poor, ultimately raising Nigeria’s human capital index.

We believe that collaboration is key to achieving lasting change. That’s why MDRF is committed to partnering with individuals, communities, and organizations—both within Nigeria and internationally—to create a society where social, economic, and environmental justice can thrive.
