Founding Story of Launching Pad Foundation
Founded in 2022 by Ibrahim Lawal, the LaunchingPad Foundation (LPF) was born from a simple but powerful belief, talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. What started as a grassroots initiative to bridge educational gaps has grown into a movement that provides mentorship, scholarships, and skill-building programs to young minds with big dreams.
LPF goes beyond traditional aid; we create pathways.
Through tailored mentorship, digital education, and leadership training, we equip students with the tools to not only imagine a better future but to actively build it. Our programs ensure that financial hardship or social barriers do not determine a child’s destiny.
From classrooms to communities, we are shaping a world where brilliance thrives, and no dream is too far to reach.
