Guildance Community Development Foundation is a Nigerian Non Governmental Organization (NGO). Our foundation, completely non-profit and non-political, is registered under part ‘C ’with the Corporate Affairs Commission. Presently, we have offices in Osun State as well as Oyo State with the plan to network throughout Nigeria in the nearest future.
The NGO focuses on HIV/AIDS prevention through awareness campaigning, pre counseling, testing, and post counseling. One of our objectives is to fight the discrimination of people living with HIV/AIDS, especially orphaned and vulnerable children highly marginalized in the society.
