In loving memory of Omotayo Christianah Obajuluwa
August 24, 1995 to January 1, 2005
The OCO Foundation was established in memory of Omotayo Christianah Obajuluwa. Her memory lives on through work dedicated to young females and the wider community, carried forward through education, empowerment, and care.
The OCO Foundation exists to uplift young females and strengthen the community at large. We believe that access to education, opportunity, and care should not be limited by circumstance, and we work to close that gap through direct, hands-on support.
Every program carries Omotayo's name and spirit forward: a commitment to seeing people, investing in their potential, and showing up for the community in real, tangible ways. In practice, that means:
Helping young females access and complete their education, from tuition support to school supplies.
Mentorship, skills training, and confidence-building for young women at pivotal moments in their lives.
Local, sustainable initiatives that strengthen the community's foundations for the long term.
Gatherings that bring resources, support, and visibility directly to the people who need them.
Connecting underserved communities with medical care and health education.
Dear Omotayo,
Your light was brief, but it never really left us. The OCO Foundation is our way of carrying it forward, into classrooms, communities, and the lives of young women who remind us of you.
We miss you every day, your bright smile and your charming eyes stay with us always.
Every scholarship given, every hand held, every life touched is a small continuation of your story.
Photos and stories from the foundation's work will be posted here as they happen.
