Our story

1001 SADAQA is a non-governmental organisation founded in Cotonou in 2026, following several solidarity initiatives run since 2024. It was born of a realisation in the field: one-off acts of solidarity, however precious, are not enough to change lives for good. Handing out a meal or providing care relieves immediate distress, but it does not answer what people most deeply want - to regain their dignity, to get an education, to build economic independence. That is why we designed an integrated model that supports each person along a structured path: from emergency aid to empowerment, and on to a lasting way out of hardship.
