Accountant - Maximum Joy Foundation

With all these in mind, a group of young volunteers teamed up to form Maximum Joy Foundation to specifically tackle the challenges facing teenage single mothers who are underprivileged and may be victims of the causal factors of street-ism and may end up curbing the menace of second-generation street children.

Maximum Joy Foundation has been in existence since 2017 and formally registered in 2020 with the aim of training and educating teenage single mothers and other less privileged persons to offer them an alternate source of income to end this vicious cycle of street-ism and impoverishment.
