Aderonke also has so much interest in Fashion, Culture and Ibadan heritage. Her first Non-Governmental Organization, Only in Nigeria Foundation was established to execute empowerment programs to all spheres of the Nigerian Society. She has a wealth of experience in health, training and youth work in the voluntary and charitable sector. The Foundation which was established a few years ago, caters for the less privileged children, trafficked children, sex and domestic violence victims, and children who have been forced into early marriage (as young as 11years).

The foundation provides holistic interventions that meet the needs of vulnerable adolescent girls, especially from poor rural areas, disadvantaged and undeserved groups like married adolescents and girls in humanitarian settings.
