United for Kids Foundation (UKF) is a Not For Profit organization incorporated in the USA, Nigeria and the United Kingdom established exclusively for charitable and educational activities targeted principally at needy children in Nigeria.
Their highly successful programs include an annual ‘Back to School’ project and free libraries in 9 public schools within Lagos, Nigeria, which have ensured that 6,000 pupils in these schools not only get the golden opportunity to develop their abilities through reading but also through arts, film-shows, holiday camps and field trips.

According to Tope Fajingbesi, Coordinating Trustee, UKF, they are not just doing this to raise money to fund the Back To School program but also to create a platform for other people to experience the hope and warmth felt, working with with these children that are most often ignored.
