Learn About Us

Over 3.6 million people face insurgency caused by extremist groups and lose their families and land. These IDPs (internally displaced people) face extreme hunger and financial crisis. The government provides no support or shelter to these victims. Most of them are Christians who are targeted based on their religion. With the help of farming and agriculture, we aim to eradicate the hunger crisis by providing free farmland, fertilizers, seeds, and other essential resources. Moreover, the SAFE Initiative provides shelter to these individuals, and with a focus on sustainable practices and support for local farmers, we are determined to eliminate poverty, teach the younger generation sustainable farming practices, and help support their families.

    Supporting Victims with Free FarmLand

    At SAFE Initiative, we are not just giving land, we are rebuilding hope for displaced Christian families and struggling farmers in Nigeria. Many have lost their homes, loved ones, and livelihoods due to persecution and violence, leaving them trapped in poverty with no means to start over.

    We are changing that by providing land to Christian victims and poor farmers, helping them rebuild their lives through self-sustaining farming communities. Each family receives up to 124 acres of farmland, with no financial requirements or conditions.

    SAFE Initiative also provides seeds, fertilizers, tractors, and essential farming equipment to boost productivity and ensure long-term success. Until their first harvest, we offer a monthly stipend to help them meet basic needs as they begin a new life of faith, dignity, and self-reliance.

    Teaching Farmers Modern Farming Techniques

    From interest-free loans to encouraging youngsters and women to support their families, the SAFE Initiative is committed to ending poverty at the root.

    We have started a new program where we teach aspirants modern farming techniques and the use of equipment such as tractors, plowing, harvesting, and irrigation.

    We connect farmers with the local and international markets. This has increased their productivity significantly, and now they can uplift their living standard.

    With our support, farmers don’t just receive aid, but they gain the tools to become self-sufficient and feed their families for a lifetime. Together, we are eradicating hunger, boosting Nigeria’s agriculture sector, and empowering rural communities.

    Rebuilding Homes, Restoring Hope for Christian Victims in Nigeria

    Many Christian families in Northern Nigeria have lost everything, their homes, land, and loved ones to violent attacks and persecution. SAFE Initiative is helping them start again by building safe and secure shelters where they can live with dignity and peace.

    Each home we build is more than just a roof. It’s a symbol of faith restored, safety regained, and a fresh beginning. With your support, we can help more displaced families find refuge, rebuild their lives, and stand strong in hope once again.

    At SAFE Initiative, we’re helping them start again, one home at a time. We build simple, safe shelters where families can finally rest without fear. It’s not luxury, but it’s a new beginning filled with hope, faith, and peace. Every home we build is a reminder that they’re not forgotten but that someone, somewhere, still cares.

    Why Donate to SAFE Initiative?

    We are committed to empowering displaced minorities from northern Nigeria who have suffered deeply due to terrorism. Many of these people are poor Christian farmers who are victims of the most brutal terrorist attacks in the world caused by Fulani Bandits and Boko Haram. Having lost their loved ones, ancestral land and home, they’re now settling in Western Nigeria with no government support or aid.
    We provide these survivors with free farmland, agricultural resources, and sustainable livelihoods so that instead of picking up guns, they pick up shovels and create a livelihood for their selves and their family. Over 80% of the Nigerians are victim of such conflicts and SAFE Initiative is helping them by restarting their life through farming. We’re not only fighting hunger but also breaking the cycle of violence and bloodshed.
