UBA Foundation
Our contributions to society and how we make a positive impact on our community.
Giving Back, Touching Lives
UBA Foundation was created in January 2004 and is committed to the bettering the communities in which the Group operates.
As one of Africa’s largest financial services institutions, we recognise the need for a social contract between the Group, the community and its people. We care about making a positive difference across sectors, geographies and communities. Our focus is on funding initiatives and programs that drive social improvement, educational advancement, and environmental sustainability.
Education
The Read Africa program and National Essay Competition are geared at stimulating the quest for sound knowledge and arming educational institutions with support and resources to meet various learning needs.
Empowerment
UBA Foundation sponsors several skills acquisition workshops, social, tech and agriculture entrepreneurship forums that promote innovation and advancement on the continent.
Environment
By signing on to the United Nations Environment Program Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) Statement, we have pledged our commitment to improving the environment and promoting sustainable development.
