Fashioned and Made for Excellence Foundation Founder and Executive Director Raphael Stephen has been awarded the Ideation Hub Africa Talent of the Future Award.

The Award was presented to Raphael Stephen at the Development Dialogue, which is Nigeria’s leading thought-leadership Conference for NGO Leaders, Development Practitioners, Social Innovators, and Entrepreneurs. It provides a rallying point for thinkers, doers, and change-makers who envision a better future for Africa and are working actively for social good.

Raphael Stephen and five of our team members were sponsored by the program and Raphael emerged the overall winner of the Talent of the Future Award in recognition of his exceptional leadership, devotion, excellent work output, teamwork, professionalism, and effective managing human resources towards catalyzing social change and achieving sustainable development impact in Africa.
