The Ighalo Orphanage Foundation was founded by Nigerian striker, Odion Jude Ighalo, and fueled by his desire to make a difference in the lives of those who have had rough starts in life. An experience he shares with them. Created as a pet project for the Nigerian striker who currently plays for Chinese club, Changehum Yatai F.C., the Ighalo Orphanage Foundation is geared at helping kids in the same society that shaped him. Born on 16th June 1989 (Age: 28), into the family of Mrs Matina Ighalo and Late Sir. Ighalo, Jude Ighalo started playing football at a very tender age and has since built a successful career in professional football. Football betting is a popular choice for sports enthusiasts, offering excitement with every match. For a seamless betting experience, the beste online Casinos ohne Lugas provide top-notch platforms, ensuring players can enjoy football betting with flexible options and diverse betting markets for maximum enjoyment and convenience. Playing for one of the world's best clubs, he decided to open this great Orphanage Home in a bid to give back to this same society. “Life was tough growing up in Ajegunle and I vowed that if I eventually had a breakthrough, I’ll give back to the society that made me, hence, the Ighalo Orphanage Foundation," - Odion Jude Ighalo. Whoever came up with the saying, "how does one understand kindness when all they have known is cruelty", may have been on to something. Help us make this dream a reality!
Dear Friends, "I am glad that the Ighalo Orphanage Home is becoming everything I had hoped and dreamed while growing up. As a young child growing up in Ajegunle, life's challenges were hard enough even with both parents at my side. It goes without saying that orphans have it even worse and it gladdens my heart that life has offered me this rare privilege to be a guiding light in their life. Be you the orphan in question, the donor with a big heart, the volunteer with means, Ighalo Orphanage Home is set to be a safe haven to one and all. I dream of affecting lives and this is one step in the right direction, with the hope that lives will be positively changed, the aims and goals of the orphanage, fully met and the children, who are the leaders of tomorrow, preserved."

"Although giving to those nearly connected to oneself is sometimes called charity—as in the saying "Charity begins at home"—normally charity denotes giving to those not related, with filial piety and like terms for supporting one's family and friends."
“Every good act is charity. A man's true wealth hereafter is the good that he does in this world to his fellows.”.
“We make a living by what we get, But we make a life by what we give. Be the change you want to see in the world.”
"In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35
