Cakasa Ebenezer Foundation (CEF) was first conceived in 2005 through the Spirit-inspired vision of the Managing Director of Cakasa Nigeria Company (CNC), Engr. Philip Balami Yaro, to be a stairway that would provide support to the weak and vulnerable members of society. This vision was further enhanced in 2011 after the victory and survival of the turbulent financial years of 2009/2010 experienced by its parent company Cakasa Nigeria Company (CNC). These challenging years saw the winding down and even death of some big conglomerates but CNC through God’s grace and the tenacity of its Board of Trustees, Management Team and Staff were able to scale through. This further led the MD while speaking at the CNC annual thanksgiving to acknowledge the hand of God being instrumental to the survival of CNC. In showing gratitude for God’s goodness, mercies and faithfulness, Cakasa Ebenezer Foundation was born.
By their endorsement and adoption of CEF, the founding Fathers of CNC with legendary vision and selfless spirit to humanity thus nurtured a small acorn seed to a great oak tree where all birds can perch for survival and eventually reach their destinies. They also fed the platform through generous donations over the years to transform societies and saving lives.
Thus. CEF is a History marker, a Victory marker and a Memorial Stone for CNC to showcase and appreciate God’s goodness to Cakasa in the past four decades of its existence. This is further captured in the CEF motto, “….Thus far the LORD has helped us.”
CEF was registered as an indigenous non-governmental-organization under the Companies & Allied Matters Act in October 2014.
CEF is the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) arm of Cakasa Nigeria Company dedicated to serve the cause of humanity through collective efforts and partnership in its Social Corporate Responsibility whilst bringing joy and hope to many.
