A Passionate Advocate for Change

With a deep passion for social impact, she has spent years championing initiatives that equip people with the skills, resources, and opportunities needed to achieve financial independence and self-sufficiency.

“I believe true empowerment is not just about giving but equipping people to build a better future for themselves and their communities.” – Ehiagwina Joy “


OUR MISSION
To identify vulnerable individuals, invest time and resources in their development, and equip them through specialized empowerment programs for a life of productivity, dignity, and self-actualization.
OUR VISION
To initiate a process that changes the narrative by empowering vulnerable individuals—especially women—to become change agents who contribute meaningfully to society.
OUR STORY
Nigeria is a country blessed with abundant human and natural resources. Yet, over 133 million people live in poverty, and the majority of them are women. This is not just a statistic—it’s a crisis.
HOGSCI was founded on the belief that real change begins when we empower individuals to lift themselves out of poverty. Our initiative is designed to help both men and women struggling with economic hardship, but we place a strong focus on women, who often face unique challenges.
Our work is not about handouts, but about sustainable solutions. We help individuals, especially women, by providing them with skills, resources, and opportunities to achieve financial independence and personal fulfillment.
