Access Holdings PLC has introduced AccessGive, a new platform designed to continue the impactful work of the late Herbert Wigwe.
The launch took place at the Herbert Wigwe One Year Memorial on Sunday, February 9, 2025, in Lagos, serving as a commitment to sustaining his legacy of education, empowerment, and community development.
Herbert Wigwe was not just a leader but a visionary who believed in creating opportunities and driving long-term change. His work went beyond banking, focusing on youth empowerment, education, and healthcare through The HOW Foundation. He also founded Wigwe University, an institution built to nurture Africa’s next generation of innovators and change-makers.
Understanding that a true legacy is carried forward through action, AccessGive was created as a platform for meaningful contributions. It connects individuals and organizations with high-impact social initiatives in education, healthcare, environmental sustainability, and community development. With a focus on transparency and collaboration, the platform ensures that every donation directly contributes to measurable progress.
AccessGive features a user-friendly interface that allows supporters to explore and fund projects that align with Herbert Wigwe’s vision. The platform offers real-time updates, transparent donation tracking, and social sharing tools, ensuring that every contribution makes a tangible difference. By supporting projects under The HOW Foundation and Wigwe University, donors are investing in the future Herbert Wigwe envisioned—one where young Africans receive world-class education, mentorship, and opportunities to shape the continent’s future.
