Who We Are

Displaced Children Foundation is the brainchild of Joseph and Karen Ogezi, residents of Rosthern, Saskatchewan, Canada. Through prayer and their own initiative, Joseph and Karen were able to gather together a number of children who are orphaned and displaced by terrorist activities and move them into a home where they are cared for in a loving, Christian environment. The foundation was begun in order to allow others to take part in their ministry to these children.

Fact: There are 300, 000 displaced men, women, and children in Benue State due to violence perpetrated by the Fulani herdsmen against the indigenous farmers. [Human Rights Watch 2019 350 Fifth Avenue, 34th Floor, New York, NY 10118 – 3299 USA.

What We Do

It is our desire to provide our children with the best possible care: physical, spiritual and emotional, so that they might grow up to be productive, contributing members of their community. Our staff at the Abuja orphanage are actively involved in the lives of the children, including by living on site with them and providing 24 hours a day care. The Displaced Children Foundation Board, located in Saskatchewan, Canada, provides logistical and financial support for our workers in Nigeria.
