Education

Educating our future for a better tomorrow.

“Knowledge makes a man unfit to be a slave.”

– Frederick Douglas

The Problem

One in five out-of-school children globally has been confirmed to be in Nigeria, constituting about 20% of children lacking any kind of formal education globally. In addition, today’s youth face many uncertainties of the future including the affordability of secondary and tertiary institutions. The nation’s education sector is plagued with a number of problems including:
  • Poor Funding.
  • Inadequate Classrooms.
  • Poor Educational Infrastructures.
  • Lacking Teaching Aids (Computers, Laboratories, Libraries etc.).
This Programme is focused on making education more accessible to the bright minds who are the hope and future of our communities. Projects will be driven by solutions to the aforementioned problems.

Our Solution

For the enlightenment of our villagers and the foundation of our future, the following projects have been developed. The programme framework will enable additional projects to be included if they contribute to the desired outcomes and benefits.
