Who We Are

Rooted in Nigeria. Powered by Purpose.

Let's Kick Out (LKO) Foundation was born from a single conviction — that poverty is not inevitable, and that sports, education, and community solidarity can break its cycle.

Founded by OluGbenga Kamson and headquartered in Ibadan, Oyo State, we operate across multiple states in Nigeria, building partnerships with government, faith organisations, universities, and international bodies to create lasting change.
