Clean water in schools
At Nord Sud Owu School, pupils and teachers once relied on water brought from home. Since the borehole was installed, children can drink and wash hands during the school day and lessons are no longer interrupted.

A shared borehole for neighbours
At Saint Joseph Catholic Church, the borehole serves both the church and surrounding community. Traders, students and elderly people use it daily—one reliable source of clean water for many households.
Women’s skills for income

Power that keeps care running
At Sabo Molode Primary Health Center, solar power now supports essential equipment when public electricity fails, helping health workers serve patients consistently—especially after dark.
Our history
A circle of women who chose action
Patnoch Rockless Privileged Foundation began in the early 1990s in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, when a small circle of women decided that poverty and lack of opportunity should not define the future of their daughters. These founding women were traders, teachers, community leaders and mothers who saw the same pain around them: bright girls leaving school, widows struggling to feed their children, talented young women with no chance to use their gifts.
What started as informal visits to families in need soon grew into a community initiative. The women pooled contributions from their own pockets, shared food, paid part of school fees and quietly stepped in where they could. People began to notice that whenever there was a girl out of school or a woman in serious need, this group of women would appear asking one simple question, “How can we help you stand again?”
