Meet Afam. This nonprofit founder turned down multiple law firm offers to serve Nigerians. He’s built GEANCO Foundation from the ground up by cultivating authentic relationships - one person at a time. In addition to surgical missions and other medical care, GEANCO provides tuition and support to young female victims of terrorism and gender inequality. With no previous fundraising experience, Afam garnered support from many celebrities including Oprah Winfrey, Benedict Cumberbatch, Charlize Theron and many more. Tune in for this heart-wired conversation about the power of relationships to save and change lives.
