About The Foundation

The Ibidunni Ighodalo Foundation (IIF) is a non-profit organization created to raise awareness on issues pertaining to infertility and to provide grants for couples that require fertility treatments such as In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and Intrauterine Insemination.

We partner with highly reputable fertility clinics in Nigeria and with other donors to provide couples with the financial and material support they require during the treatment. We also provide the necessary psychological and spiritual support they require to deal with the pressures they face along their journey to conception.

Our Mission

To raise awareness about infertility and the challenges associated with it. To stop the stigmatization of couples dealing with infertility and to provide the spiritual, financial and psychological support they require.

Our Vision

To have every couple enjoy the gift of parenthood regardless of their financial or social status but the main focus is for those who cannot afford such treatment.

IIF Grant

We understand the financial strain that comes with pursuing fertility treatments and have determined that it should not be a barrier to your dreams of parenthood. The IBIDUNNI IGHODALO FOUNDATION grant has been set up to make sure that those dreams come true.

The Foundation gives couples grants that offer funding towards fertility treatments of various kinds. It would be recalled that in 2016 the foundation partnered with certified fertility clinics in Nigeria to provide fertility services to 28 couples dealing with the financial strain of fertility treatments.

Success stories from the previous set of couples include over 40 successful treatments, 20 confirmed pregnancies and 13 SUCCESSFUL deliveries.

What our beneficiaries say

We sincerely and deeply appreciate all that the Foundation did for us. In fact we pray regularly for the Foundation's work and for its benefactor. We know that the Living God that we serve will make all things beautiful to his Glory.

The Foundation did not only give us the opportunity to enjoy the free IVF, they actually visited us in our home. We rest assured that God will answer our prayers soonest and laughter, joy and reasons to celebrate will forever be the portion of Mrs. Ibidunni Ighodalo.

I would like to take the time to say a BIG THANK YOU to your Foundation for funding my IVF treatment last year at the Roding Reproductive Centre in Lekki phase 1. Your intervention gave us, my husband and I hope.
