When was the first Fani Foundation started?
In 2007, Esther Oluchukwu Okeke, a Potomac, Maryland Independent Company, started the first community foundation as a component of her business. She had two goals: To create a vehicle to facilitate donor’s charitable intentions in perpetuity even if their original purpose became obsolete (variance power); and second, to establish a system whereby people that are in need of medical help can come for comfort.
