Aware that a lot of young girls look up to her for inspiration, she launched the Asisat Oshoala Foundation to mentor and groom young girls who aspire to be the best they can be in their chosen endeavour, not necessarily football, and giving them a new lease of life.

The foundation has in recent times reached out to little kids in orphanages across Lagos, devoting her time in well-meaning charity causes particularly in her home country, Nigeria.

General Manager, Kwesé Free Sports Nigeria, Chichi Nwoko explained that Kwesé Free Sports will support the Asisat Oshoala Foundation as part of its commitment to youth development through sports.

“We believe that Asisat exemplifies what Kwesé Free Sports stands for. We want to be the vehicle through which she tells the story of women through her foundation”, Nwoko said.

Asisat is living a lifelong dream of being one of the best female footballers in the world and says “she intends to fully utilize her potentials as the best female footballer to ever come out of Nigeria.” She adds that she is “happy to be a part of the Kwesé family”.
