Philanthropy & Social Impact

Two Continents.
One Mission.
Uplifting Humanity.

Hareter Babatunde Oralusi (HBO) leads two powerful philanthropic arms—Fatherland Foundation (USA) and HBO Foundation (Nigeria)—that work together to build bridges of dignity, opportunity, and empowerment across the African diaspora and home communities.

Fatherland Foundation (USA)

Empowering Black Youth. Reconnecting the Diaspora.

Operating from the United States, the Fatherland Foundation focuses on reconnecting disadvantaged Black youth to their heritage while equipping them with tools for success.

Core Focus Areas

  • Scholarships and academic support for underprivileged African-American students
  • Cultural reconnection programmes linking African-American youth with West Africa
  • Mentorship and identity restoration through faith-based and entrepreneurial pathways
  • Youth entrepreneurship training and cooperative empowerment initiatives
  • Mental wellness and social resilience support for at-risk inner-city youth

HBO Foundation (Nigeria)

Compassion in Action. Change That Lasts.

The HBO Foundation operates at the heart of Nigeria’s most vulnerable communities—delivering life-changing impact through targeted interventions in education, disability support, child welfare, and community resilience.

Key Impact Highlights

  • Scholarships for 50 Children from Disadvantaged Families: Comprehensive scholarships have been granted to 30 primary and secondary school students, enabling access to quality education, learning materials, and structured mentorship.
  • Mobility for Disability Children: In a renewed act of commitment, HBO recently donated a luxury buses to the Focus on Disability Foundation (FOD) and others in Nigeria. This ensures reliable and dignified mobility for children with disabilities—supporting school attendance and inclusion in community life.
  • Financing of Multiple Motherless Homes: The Foundation provides financial support for several motherless children’s homes, ensuring these orphaned children receive:
    • Daily meals
    • Medical care
    • Shelter
    • School fees
    • Psycho-social support
  • Post-Secondary Educational Aid & Youth Empowerment: Recognizing the funding gap after secondary education, the Foundation has launched a post-secondary bursary scheme for low-income students pursuing university, technical, or vocational training. This includes tuition support, textbook provision, and career mentoring.

Guiding Philosophy

HBO’s philanthropy reflects his belief in long-term capacity-building—not handouts. His humanitarian actions are grounded in:

  • Equity and dignity
  • Interfaith inclusion
  • Structured interventions that multiply impact
  • Strategic partnerships with credible NGOs

“Whether it’s an orphan, a student, or a child with special needs—every life deserves a fair shot. And every leader should do more than speak; we must act.”
