Since then, her daughter has needed to use a prosthetic limb. Crystal realised there was a significant lack of resources for children like her daughter, and established the IREDE Foundation in 2012 to change the narrative around disability in <span class=\"xn-location\">Nigeria<\/span> and in <span class=\"xn-location\">Africa<\/span> at large.<\/p>\n<p>Vantage Foundation visited The IREDE Foundation in February to pledge support for their cause. &quot;We are thrilled to support the IREDE Foundation to make a positive impact on the lives of Nigerian children with limb loss,&quot; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Steven Xie<\/span>, Executive Director, Vantage Foundation. &quot;As a partner of The IREDE Foundation, we will provide holistic support to these champions in <span class=\"xn-location\">Nigeria<\/span>, and provide the opportunities they deserve to thrive.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Since its inception, The IREDE Foundation has been at the forefront of advocacy and empowerment for these children, whom they call champions. They have provided over 528 custom-made prosthetic limbs to 479 children across 35 states in <span class=\"xn-location\">Nigeria<\/span> for free, and they have continued to maintain and replace these prosthetics as the children grow. They have also enhanced these children&#8217;s access to education and empowered them to pursue their dreams through the provision of educational scholarships.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;IREDE is honored to have representatives of Vantage Foundation visit us in <span class=\"xn-location\">Nigeria<\/span> and see our vision become a reality through our champions,&quot; said Crystal. &quot;Together, we are creating a more inclusive world for all.&quot;<\/p>\n<p><b>About Vantage Foundation<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Vantage Foundation is an independent charitable organisation launched at the McLaren Technology Centre in the UK with the support of the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), and the NEOM McLaren Extreme E team in 2023.
