Tonto Dike Charity Programmes
The Tonto Dikeh Foundation is a non governmental organization set up by the actress and co managed by Bunmi Fagbuyiro, with the vision to create an environment where rape, injustice and other societal ills against women will be a thing of the past by providing world class succor to rape victims and advocating against all forms of child abuse and societal injustice against women in Africa, providing a second Chance to all victims. In February 2017, the foundation awarded scholarships to two hundred students in warri, delta state and in April they awarded scholarships to three hundred and forty five students in Abuja, with Cross River State as the next target.
Tonto Dike’s passion for charity is clear, this explains why the crash of her marriage did not hinder her from continuing with scholarship scheme despite the trauma she had been through.
She was one of the few artists who solicited for help doe the victims of the flood in Markurdi, Benue state capital. She has also been of great support to her colleague Halima Abubakar who has been ill for some time now.
