    About Josephs House International Organization

    Josephs House International Organization concentrates its modest giving on direct-service charitable work in Nigeria, funding programs that combine practical livelihood training for petty traders with free primary health clinic services. The foundation appears to provide targeted, program-specific donations rather than broad institutional support, focusing on on-the-ground community assistance. Its funding is narrowly focused geographically and programmatically, suggesting a donor interest in small-scale international relief and capacity-building.

    Who They Fund

    elementary-aged children / school studentspetty traders / informal sector vendorsindigent (low-income) womenlow-income or uninsured clinic patientsschool communities

    Highly concentrated giving: very few grants (two) all to the same international grantee; relatively small overall giving but focused program support rather than diversified portfolio.

    About Josephs House International Organization

    Josephs House International Organization’s largest recent grant was $480,000 to Joseph House Int Nigeria for work in schools and the community. That single award gives a clear view of the foundation’s priorities: direct-service support tied to practical needs, with a strong emphasis on Nigeria. Across the recent grant list, the organization has also backed free medical clinic care and school-based assistance, suggesting a programmatic approach rather than broad institutional philanthropy. The foundation’s giving is not spread across many grantees; instead, it concentrates on a small set of named recipients and recurring project themes. The pattern is visible in its support for Joseph House Int Nigeria in 2025 and 2023, where the stated purposes included work in schools, support for petty traders, free medical clinic care, school supplies, library rebuilding, sports equipment, and assistance to indigent women. The organization’s grants also reach U.S.-based recipients, including Church of the Redeemer, Mother of God School, and Faith Alive International, but the center of gravity in the recent record is a practical, service-oriented portfolio linked to education, health, and livelihood support.

    What Josephs House International Organization Funds

    Education-related support appears in several forms. In 2023, Josephs House International Organization gave $23,700 to Joseph House Int Nigeria for school supplies to multiple schools, school library rebuild, and sports equipment and gear for elementary-aged kids. Livelihood support is another clear theme. In 2025, the foundation awarded $50,000 to Joseph House Int Nigeria for work in schools supporting petty traders and supporting free medical clinic care, linking economic assistance with community services. Health care is also present in the same 2025 grant, with explicit support for free medical clinic care. The 2026 grant to Joseph House Int Nigeria for work in schools and the community reinforces that the foundation favors direct program support aimed at local needs rather than general-purpose giving. The recent record also includes assistance to indigent women, showing that the foundation’s programmatic support extends beyond schools and clinics into targeted economic help.

    How Josephs House International Organization Gives

    The typical grant size falls in a fairly tight band: p25 is $30,275, the median is $36,850, and p75 is $43,425. The recent record also includes one much larger award of $480,000, which stands apart from the rest of the distribution. The same recipient appears across multiple years, including 2023, 2025, and 2026, pointing to recurring support rather than one-off grants. The foundation is not an individual giver and does not make program-related investments. Its recent awards are mostly targeted program grants, often with short purpose statements tied to specific service activities.
