“We must all see ourselves as the Blessings of Africa, a blessed people being empowered through skill development, community development, education, job creation, utilizing our talents to produce a surplus in our rich Continent. We are not helpless, we are not lazy, and we are not depending on others for handouts. Africa is Blessed, so are we!

Men, women, boys, girls, old, and young are all the Blessings of Africa. We are not to compete unwholesomely and unnecessarily to drag each other down. We are to come together, complement one another, unite, work together to transform our motherland because We Are Stronger Together!”

-Dr. Queen Blessing Itua (Founder)

About Us

We are the Blessings of Africa, determined to “Be A Blessing” and to “Dignify the Needy with Our Surplus” aimed at poverty prevention, reduction, intervention and eradication.

We provide Economic Enrichment for the Voiceless African People In Need (APIN), (Displaced by economic disadvantage), and Youths In Need (YIN) (At risk youths and children)

We are committed to be the voice of the weak and empower the voiceless women, mothers, girls, and youths who are impoverishment, abuse, abandonment, and bereavement are vulnerable to deception, exploitation, and/or plagued by the crimes of abuse, human trafficking, and forced prostitution in Africa – the motherland.

We recognize that self-development is not enough for real poverty eradication, we provide real support, including mentorship, talent incubator, and economic resources for the talent/skill development and deployment especially for the most vulnerable and underprivileged.
