In Her Memory A Legacy of Education & Service
The Jolaade Adeola Foundation was founded in honour of Dcns. Jolaade Adeola Odebiyi (d. 26 May 2026) - a dedicated teacher, retired headmistress, and lifelong champion of education. Her belief was simple: every child, regardless of background, deserves the opportunity to learn.
This Foundation carries forward that belief - turning her passion into lasting impact for generations of Nigerian students.
Every child, regardless of background, deserves the opportunity to learn.
