Testimonials

I’m Toluwalope Christina Adekoya.

I really want to thank and appreciate Family Support Initiative (FASI) for her good gesture to empower and assist single mothers in their businesses. In 2020, I was inspired by that post and I nominated myself. To my greatest surprise I got a call from the FASI management team and they asked me some questions which I answered in details, they then enquired about my business asking how I could improve it and I told them that I will like to expand my household products business so as to attracts more customers and more income.
We had the phone conversation at length. I told them how I have been struggling to take care of my kids all by myself ever since I left their Dad because our relationship was not a healthy one. I was very happy when I discovered I was one of the beneficiaries. I want to use this medium to thank and appreciate FASI for this pleasant empowerment opportunity and all that FASI is doing for humanity. Thank you so much FASI.

Infact I am short of words. May God bless the President and the entire Fasi Management team for supporting and economically empowering me. They have always been there for me since I cried to FASI May God bless FASI for all they have done for me and my kids.
I now have my own business because of FASI and because of this shop, I no longer have high blood pressure brought about by the abuse and violence I went through in my marriage.

God bless FASI.

My Testimony
I am Dorcas Deye from Plateau State, a mother of 2 and a single mother at that.

I got separated from my kids dad after 17 years of Domestic violence, I kept enduring until he almost killed me in March 2019.

I moved from the mainland to the Island in Lagos and started helping out in my church as a volunteer. I feed and pay my kids fees by God’s grace and favor from church members.

It was time to pay for 2020 WAEC AND NECO at his school, Joyceville College but I couldn’t raise the money. Registration was almost late when God did his wonders by using my son’s principal to mention his name when the president of FASI came to the school to help children who are not able to pay their WAEC and NECO fees.
God is never late in helping people, today my son has written 2020 WAEC after the covid crisis and he started writing NECO before the protest of #ENDSARS

Also, during the covid lockdown, FASI Management reached out to me and the kids with 15,000 food bank intervention support for my family. We are so blessed knowing and coming in contact with this organization.

Thank you FASI for all that you do.
Only God will reward you and your blessings will overflow.

Dorcas Deye, Plateau State

I want to appreciate FASI (Family support initiative). FASI Economic Empowerment Intervention Program was created for single mothers to be assisted in their businesses.I was a beneficiary of the program in 2020.I nominated myself but was surprised when I got a call from FASI asking me what I can really do to push my business forward .I said I would appreciate it if I could get assistance for school furniture in my school because furniture was our pressing problem. We spoke at length of not having direct contact with the cash involved but I said I didn’t mind as long as the furniture will get to me. I’m a struggling single mum with three daughters who left an abusive relationship some years back. Using this medium to appreciate FASI for the economic empowerment and all FASI is doing.

Long live FASI
