Following his passing on January 9th, 2023, the foundation was born out of a deep-seated commitment to fulfill Mr. Nassini’slifelong aspiration of serving society and bringing joy to people’s hearts.
Under the passionate leadership of Mia Nassini, our Executive Director, the Nassini Foundation has tirelessly worked to improve the lives of Togolese communities. Mia’s personal dedication and sponsorship of various initiatives have positively impacted over 200 individuals and counting.

Therefore, we actively pursue grant opportunities to expand our reach and effect positive change on a larger scale.
