In July 2023, the foundation donated over ₦200 million to orphanages across the country, benefiting 13,818 children. Davido also promised additional contributions for 2024.

In the press release posted at the time, he said: “I founded the DAF in 2022 with a strong desire and passion to continually assist and create a proper framework for the ongoing charitable works to benefit the good people of Nigeria.

“Through this foundation, we have raised millions of Naira and dispersed much-needed funds to hundreds of orphanages significantly improving the lives of countless children.”

After receiving the substantial sum, the singer revealed his intention to donate it in full to orphanages across Nigeria.

“I am delighted to announce that all the funds received totalling ₦200,000,000 will be donated to orphanages across Nigeria as well as the Paroche Foundation,” he said.
He then disbursed the funds with an additional ₦50 million.
