Building stronger families, empowered communities, and value-driven young leaders across Africa.
Registered non-governmental organisation • CAC/IT/NO 57883
FVDI uses education, creativity, and faith-aligned programmes to shape values that transform lives and communities.
We believe strong values build strong people — and strong people build strong communities and nations.
The Faith and Values Development Initiative (FVDI) is a non-governmental, non-profit organisation focused on rebuilding Africa through value-based development. We work to strengthen families, empower young people, and drive community transformation using education, creativity, and faith-aligned programmes.
Our conviction is simple: strong values build strong people, and strong people build strong communities. Everything we do — from training and mentorship to creative projects and partnerships — is designed to reflect that belief.
We believe in the dignity of every person, the importance of family and community, and the power of faith-rooted values to shape behaviour, decisions, and long-term development.
Our mission is to nurture faith-driven, value-centred individuals and communities through programmes that strengthen identity, responsibility, creativity, and purpose.
Supporting families with tools, conversations, and programmes that promote stability, communication, and shared values.
Equipping young people with mentoring, training, and life skills that help them lead with confidence and integrity.
Encouraging reading, storytelling, and continuous learning as pathways to personal growth and social impact.
Working with communities to promote responsibility, compassion, and collaboration through practical initiatives.
FVDI serves as the values-development partner for the Africa of My Dream Series (AFOMDS), a literary platform promoted by Goldridge Publishing. Through this collaboration, we help ensure that the stories published under the series reflect strong values and responsible storytelling.
We work alongside authors and partners to highlight themes such as faith, family values, cultural identity, social responsibility, and the dignity of women and youth across Africa.

Writing workshops, storytelling clubs, and creativity clinics that give young people a voice and a platform.

FVDI – Family Values Development Initiative campaigns for the restoration of faith in the family system. The values that bind families are what make the family the bedrock of any society. These values are tied to the family’s economic and social capacities. Education and enterprise being determinants of income inequality are critical to family stability.
