Miles In Missions

We’re excited to introduce you to someone who plays a vital role in everything we do at CARE Africa — our Operations Manager, Ayo.

In this short video, you’ll hear directly from Ayo as he shares about the ministry, the school, and the heart behind the work happening every day in Egbe, Nigeria. His leadership, compassion, and tireless commitment help keep CARE Africa moving forward and impacting lives.

I first met Ayo in 2013 when we arrived in Egbe. At the time, he was affectionately known as a “small boy,” serving as an intern assisting the hospital secretary. From our very first interaction, I was struck by his incredible work ethic, attention to detail, and the humble confidence he brought to every task. He stood out immediately, and I knew he was someone special.

Years later, as CARE Africa began to grow, our former CEO needed an assistant. Around that same time, Ayo reached out to me looking for work. I didn’t hesitate, he was the perfect fit. He served faithfully and humbly for over two years before stepping into the role he was truly made for.

Today, as our Operations Manager, Ayo leads with excellence, inspiring our team and ensuring the mission of CARE Africa is lived out every day. We are so grateful for him!

Thank you for being part of the CARE Africa family. Your support helps make stories like this possible.
