Who We are

Empowering Families • Building Hope • Creating Inclusion

TayanCare Foundation was born out of a deeply personal journey. When founder Tola Ayanlola’s youngest child was diagnosed with autism at the age of one, he experienced firsthand the challenges and triumphs of navigating therapy, care, and hope. Through patience, love, and consistent support, his daughter began to talk and connect — a transformation that ignited his mission to help other families experience the same breakthrough.

Having grown up in Africa, Tola also saw how many parents struggled to afford schooling and developmental support for their children. For more than 15 years, he personally sponsored education for under-resourced children — a practice that became the foundation of TayanCare’s compassionate vision.

Today, TayanCare Foundation continues that legacy by empowering children with developmental challenges, supporting families through micro-grants, resources, and inclusive community events, and building bridges of hope across continents — ensuring no family ever walks alone.
