About Hand of Grace · Ekiti State

Our story

A family tradition of helping people became a shared mission.

Pa Michael Adeola Oladunjoye was known for feeding people who were hungry, supporting widows and helping families facing hardship. His home and personal resources became a dependable source of care for people in need.

His example inspired family members and volunteers to continue the work. Formal registration in 2024 created a stronger foundation for organised programmes, responsible governance and wider community support.
