The Almighty created each and every one us for a place in the world: and for the least of us to think that we were created only to be what we are and not what we can make ourselves, is to impute an improper motive to the creator for creating us (Zik1970:33). Therefore, he who is born without any service from him is a specimen of futility to humanity.
The heights reached by great servants of the people the world over have all along started from somewhere!
I am Bamidele Omosehin, a native of Iju-Odo town in Okitipupa Local Government Council of Ondo State. I’m a compassionate, decent and diligent entrepreneur. At present, I serve as the *CEO* of *NVX* International Ltd*. A very proud Nigerian and a family oriented individual that preaches and believes in the time-honoured maxim of always being one’s brother’s keeper.
I am a well-travelled, experienced businessman and an altruistic individual with a lot of empathy for my fellow man. I believe in the empowerment of my people rather than merely keeping them to bear their burden.
To me, growing up was not a bed of roses. And today, as I look back with nostalgia how the average kids like me from a modest family had to struggle to get the bare necessities of life at some point in our formative years, I feel challenged. This really shaped my orientation about the hardships people face on a daily basis around us and all over the world. Eventually, it propelled me to set up a foundation, by the Grace of God, to genuinely help the downtrodden, widows, orphans and the less privileged.
The goal of the foundation is to ameliorate poverty and hardship—this we intend doing in our own little way by giving out scholarships to as many students as possible, who are willing to get themselves educated but are financially handicapped.
Bamidele Omosehin Foundation would also seek to help the homeless as well as people struggling with medical bills in hospitals and, even visit and take care of orphans and those with disabilities. Truth is, the present day government can’t do everything. I believe as a man with an unwavering knack for philanthropic services that setting up the foundation is my little way of contributing my quota to the society and putting smiles on people’s faces.
