The Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ Charity Foundation was established in 2022 by Rev. Fr. Dr. Godwin Ukatu and Mrs. Nneka Ezeafulukwe (née Ukatu)—siblings united by a lifelong passion for serving the less privileged, especially children, the elderly, orphans, and widows. Their journey in charitable work began early through the junior presidium of the Legion of Mary, where they developed a deep-rooted sense of compassion and commitment to uplifting the poor and marginalized. Over time, this calling matured into a vision: to create a structured, transparent, and impactful platform dedicated to humanitarian service. Read More
Supporting growth through community- funding.
Our interventions are focused on creating lasting change through community development, healthcare access, educational support, and emergency relief.
We believe education can open doors, expand possibilities, and help break cycles of disadvantage. Through scholarships, educational assistance, learning resources, school infrastructure, and related initiatives, we support children and young people whose circumstances may otherwise limit their access to quality education and the opportunity to realise their potential.
Good health is fundamental to a life of dignity and opportunity. We support healthcare access, medical interventions, health outreach, and essential care for vulnerable individuals and underserved communities, particularly where financial or social circumstances make appropriate healthcare difficult to obtain.
For people facing hardship, meeting basic daily needs can become an overwhelming challenge. We provide food and essential assistance to vulnerable children, families, widows, elderly persons, and others experiencing difficult circumstances. We have outreach every year where we distribute food items to the poor and needy.
