Testimonials

The Ekiti Progressive Union has been a beacon of hope for me and my family. When I was struggling to pay my children’s school fees back in Ekiti, they stepped in and provided the financial assistance we desperately needed. Their support allowed my kids to continue their education without interruption. I am forever grateful for the kindness and generosity of this incredible organization.

Oluwakemi Adebayo, Beneficiary

I recently lost my job, and it felt like my world was falling apart. The Ekiti Progressive Union not only provided me with temporary financial support but also connected me with job opportunities in the Dallas area. Their genuine concern for my well-being and their commitment to helping me get back on my feet made all the difference. This organization truly embodies the spirit of love and unity.

Ayodeji Ogunleye,
beneficiary

My family in Ekiti has faced many challenges, but the Ekiti Progressive Union has always been there to lend a helping hand. Whether it was providing funds for medical treatment or supporting community projects back home, they have consistently shown that they care about the welfare of our people. Their dedication to improving the lives of Ekiti indigenes, both here in Dallas and back home, is truly commendable.
