FORTE, Charity for Inspiration is dedicated to reaching out to the young and less privileged, offering them hope and the motivation to work hard for a brighter future. We believe that greatness begins in the mind. By offering motivation and support, we help people think beyond their present difficult circumstances and aim higher. People can believe in themselves and work on their God-given talents to become the best they can be, without focusing on their challenges. When young people begin to think positively and realize that their choices today can affect their lives tomorrow, they will stay out of trouble and eventually become valuable members of society.

Above is a photo from our canvas presentation to the Coventry City of Culture team. The beautiful and symbolic painting was given to the Forte Charity team on a trip to Abidjan in April 2022 (video below) by a young artist for the youth of Coventry from Ivorian youth, after our motivational workshops in Ivory Coast. We help people by giving valuable advice/guidance and motivational talks/seminars. We provide motivational books and educational materials to young students and orphans in Africa who cannot afford them. Forte grants are offered yearly to African students in higher education, based on need, merit and available funds. Our beneficiaries include many medical students studying at the University of Ibadan, Kaduna State University, and students from other courses and universities in Nigeria. We also financially support schools/orphanages in very deprived parts of Africa to keep going and to be more effective in helping the children there, who are usually very keen to learn. We are grateful to our volunteers worldwide, especially the HELLO team in Ivory Coast. 

​

Forte supports book clubs to encourage reading, good attitudes and teamwork among young people. We give prizes to hard-working students to encourage them to keep up their good work. Our work has been helping many young people in Africa to improve their attitude to life and work hard for a better future for themselves and their countries. We believe that as citizens apply themselves and become people of integrity, we will see positive changes in Africa.

Forte was first registered as a charity in Nigeria in 2008. It became a UK charitable company in 2010. Forte raises funds internationally to financially support intelligent/hardworking young people whose academic progress is being hindered by lack of tuition fees. Whilst keeping our projects feasible and realistic, we believe that all our efforts will add up to make a great change in people's lives and prospects. We are very grateful to all our supporters and donors. Please contact us to find out how you can volunteer and/or support further.

​

Our 15th anniversary dinner on 02.09.2023 was a success and we are grateful for the amazing donors that supported us.
