About Us...

Twins Alive Foundation was born from a deeply personal loss and a determination to protect the lives of twins and multiple births.

The Story of Peter

Twin Peter, the twin brother of the founder, passed away on 14 May 1999.

The 10 Years...

Ten years later, that experience became the inspiration for a movement dedicated to helping twins, multiple births and their families.

Today

Continuing the mission across Nigeria and beyond. Creating awareness, preserving the good work of our moher Mary Slessor and protecting the dignity and rights of twins and children.

For more than a decade, Twins Alive Foundation has worked to improve the lives of twins, multiple births, children, young people and vulnerable families.

Mary Slessor: A Legacy of Courage and Compassion

More than a century after Mary Slessor dedicated her life to protecting twins and vulnerable people in this part of Nigeria, her example continues to inspire the work of Twins Alive Foundation.

The Foundation erected a commemorative statue at Mary Slessor’s last residence at Use Ikot Oku and continues activities connected with her memorial legacy. This is also independently documented in Nigerian reporting.

Understanding Our Story

The people, purpose, heritage and defining moments behind the Twins Alive Foundation.

The Foundation was born from a deeply personal loss. Twin Peter, the twin brother of the Foundation’s progenitor, passed away on 14 May 1999. Ten years later, that experience became the inspiration for a vision dedicated to protecting and improving the lives of twins, multiple births and vulnerable children.

TAF works to support twins, multiple births, children, young people, vulnerable families and communities, particularly those facing social, economic, health or welfare challenges.

You can support TAF by becoming a member, volunteering, partnering with us, supporting our humanitarian programmes or contributing to initiatives such as the Miss a Meal Campaign.

It captures the heart of our story. A painful personal loss became the seed of a greater humanitarian vision, transforming grief into service, compassion into action and remembrance into a lasting commitment to protect lives.

Born from loss. Built around hope

What began with the loss of one twin became a commitment to help protect the lives and dignity of many.
