Ayoka Aladire - Institute

Ayoka Aladire

The Ayoka Aladire Institute is a community empowerment initiative committed to delivering vocational training to youths, women, widows, and men eager to learn a trade but lack the resources. Specializing in skills like bag making and various handcrafts, we provide the knowledge and tools needed to create sustainable livelihoods and foster self-reliance.

To make this possible, we rely on generous sponsors who help fund the training. You can choose to sponsor one or more trainees, covering the cost of their education and materials. For those who wish to give back to their community discreetly, we act as the bridge—delivering the training on your behalf without revealing your identity.

Adire, meaning 'tied and dyed,' is an indigenous Yoruba textile craft. Ayoka's technique, passed through generations, creates intricate patterns using natural dyes. Ayoka honours this tradition while redefining its role in contemporary fashion.
