Suudu Baaba Foundation (SBF) is a community-based, Non-Political, Non-sectional, Philanthropic, Non-Governmental Organization formed in 2017 but legally registered in March 2018 with the Office of the Registrar of Companies by the Ashanti Regional Chief of Fulani who is also the National Vice President of the Fulani Chiefs in Ghana after the demise of his elder brother in November 2017.
The formation of this organization came as a result of the efforts by the Fulani (Fulbe) to integrate into communities where they are often reminded that they are strangers who do not belong to the community.
The Fulani community is largely presumed to be aliens and therefore subject to all manner of ridicule. Their rights are always being trampled upon and they have nowhere to go. The local community is indifferent to the younger Fulani's who have been born in the area and have no other place of origin.

Fulani Women, Children and Youths have continued to bear the burdens of the existent inequality in the spread of access to wealth and socio-economic activities that benefit them.
