Sir. David Osunde Foundation website is poised to be a game-changer in addressing these challenges by providing a centralized platform for information dissemination, advocacy, and support services. Here's how the website intends to make a difference:
Sir David E. Osunde, KSS; JP is a lay practising Catholic who has been married for over 35 years. His strength is his belief in the Gospel message, while his strong desire is to make use of this as it is humanly possible in every situation, striving day-by-day to give effect to this message by practical actions. His assignments are usually very “tall” in some cases but not unachievable. “With God all things are possible” is his regular statement. This explains why he is into many projects, including music and drama, building and publishing. He has passionately dedicated his time, talent and treasury to a number of projects which he established, from his Annual Christian Family Xmas Carols competitions among Catholic parishes and non-Catholic churches to the annual prison programmes for in-mates aimed at improving their spiritual lives in the Archdiocese of Benin City. It has been a great joy for his family, friends and well-wishers since Pope John Paul II of blessed memory honoured him with an award of Papal Knight of St. Sylvester in 1992. His investiture took place in 1993. In 2005, his wife was similarly honoured as a Papal Knight of St. Sylvester by the reigning Pontiff, His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI. Her investiture took place on the 27th of May, 2006, on the birthday of her loving husband. What a better day for both husband and wife to celebrate!

We are proud of our customers testimonials, which reflect their satisfaction with our services.
For many years your foundation has consistently upheld the values of family life and the dignity of the human person. Through this celebration in honour of persons with disabilities, you have persistently proved that there are abilities in disabilities and that, we all have beerrcreated in the image and likeness of God therefore, everyone deserves to be loved despite their physical challenges.
Sensitivity to a fellow man is the inner quality of our person and the ability of our spirit. When it disappears, many a sadness occur first at our personal and then social level. Jesus showed us that far more important than any material gift is giving ourselves to each other. There can te no progress for the better in our society as long as people do not become gift and blessing to each other. Therefore, I would like to remind all the participants of the event organized by the Osunde Foundation, in order to underline the commitment for the lives of persons with disabilities, that God himself chose this path in his Son Jesus Christ, and by taking human body he gave himself for us on the cross and with his divine love joined in our suffering, to bestow on US the gift of the fullness of life
I am pleased to note that you consistently brought Jesus message to people with disabilities. Thus, your Foundation has played a significant role in society by emphasising the human dignity of the disabled. Your Foundation's dedication to the service of humanity is a response to Jesus' command to his disciples, as stated in the gospel of Mathew 14:16; "They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat." For a considerable number of years, your Foundation has been putting smiles on the faces of people living with disability across Nigeria. Every Easter Monday, your Foundation brings people living with disabilities to, in a unique way, experience the joy of the resurrection.
