Our Education Initiative provides scholarships, school supplies, and mentorship programs to underprivileged children across Africa—ensuring they can learn, thrive, and build brighter futures. Aligned with UN SDG 4: Quality Education, we’re tackling barriers like poverty, gender inequality, and lack of resources. We believe education is the most powerful tool to break the cycle of poverty.

Key Impact

  • 100+ scholarships awarded since 2018.
  • 500+ school kits distributed annually (books, uniforms, backpacks).
  • 60% reduction in dropout rates among sponsored students.
How We Support Education

Scholarships for Stranded Students

We cover tuition fees, exam costs, and school supplies for children at risk of dropping out due to financial hardship. To be eligible, beneficiaries must have demonstrated financial need (single-parent homes, orphaned children, or families earning <$2/day). In addition, the beneficiary would have shown strong academic effort or potential (which is usually verified by school reports).

School Supplies and Vocational Training

We provide annual school kits: backpacks, textbooks, and uniforms. In addition, we provide mentorship and career guidance by organizing quarterly workshops: STEM, leadership, and vocational skills.

How Students Are Selected

We prioritize transparency and impact:

  • Referrals: From schools, community leaders, and partner NGOs.
  • Applications: Families submit income proof and academic records.
  • Interviews: Home visits to verify needs and assess commitment.

Focus Areas:

  • Girl-child education (60% of scholarships target female students).
  • Rural communities with limited school access.

Join us in cultivating joy, nourishing hearts and bringing hope – one smile at a time.
