Our Mission
To restore life, health and peace to indigenous farmers and nomadic pastoralists in Nigeria through the settlement of pastoralists onto protected, ecologically sound grazing reserves with healthcare and schools provided for their families.
Like an African three-legged pot, the Good Life for the Fulani depends on all three legs. If one fails, the pot falls.
We will provide healthcare and education for Fulani families. Our schools and healthcare clinics are open to ALL tribes, and they learn together. We live with these communities, sowing love and friendship.
We teach Nigerians to care for the land through grazing reserves and rotational grazing. We dig boreholes to provide water for livestock and farming. These permanent homelands allow families to settle in one place, and live in peace with their neighbors.
We encourage ways for the Fulani to support themselves through veterinary care, grain grinding projects, and milk partnerships, so families can thrive.
We are working towards a Nigeria where the beautiful Fulani people can live together in friendship and peace with their neighbors.
"All things are possible to those who believe." — Mark 9:23
On The Ground
From 25+ schools and 11 healthcare clinics to grazing reserves across Nigeria.

The Film
In 2015, missionary Phyllis Sortor was kidnapped and held in the Nigerian bush for 12 days. You can watch the full film here. It tells the incredible story of her captivity, miraculous release, and courageous decision to return and continue serving the Fulani people.
It is also the story of the miraculous things God did in Nigeria after Phyllis chose to return despite everything she had endured.
