The Foundation for African Development began as a committee of friends in 1995 when a group of young African professionals met together and decided among themselves to form an organization that will help the teaming less privileged and malnourished children in Africa. It further broadened its scope to include joining hands with several government agencies and other organizations in the fight to eradicate HIV/AID'S and other killer diseases in Africa and also contributing to the economic revival and utilization of abundant manpower and natural resources in Africa.

The mission at that time was to solicit and provide charitable contributions that would help solve some of the continents most serious societal and economic problems. As a result FFAD (Foundation for African Development) was formed and subsequently incorporated in February of 2001. The FFAD is designed to be a non-profit entity with primary emphasis being soliciting funds for specific targeted programs/projects in Africa. It is also the objective of the founding members of the FFAD that such projects/programs shall be for the primary benefit of the masses with special consideration on the populace living in selected rural areas of the continent.
