Role of the Foundation in Education Funding
The Dr. Adekunle & Mrs. Adefunke Onabadejo Foundation is dedicated to removing financial barriers to education. Founded in 2022, the organization provides scholarships to students who demonstrate both financial need and academic merit, supporting them from elementary through post-secondary education.
General Evaluation Criteria for Applications
Scholarship applications are evaluated based on two key criteria: demonstrated financial need and academic merit. The foundation conducts a rigorous review process each year to select recipients.
Transparency and Accountability
The foundation publicly lists its scholarship recipients by name and educational level, demonstrating transparency in its funding operations. Annual reports show the progression of supported students across academic years.
Impact and Reach
Since beginning operations in 2022, the foundation has funded 107 students across primary, secondary, and post-secondary levels. For the 2025-2026 academic year, 18 students were selected from 190 applications, representing the foundation's 4th cohort of recipients.
