The EbonyIda Foundation is dedicated to providing essential school supplies to economically disadvantaged primary school students in Edo State through its School Supplies Program. The Foundation recognizes the fundamental role of basic education in the growth and development of young learners, as well as their interaction with society. In preparation for the 2024 academic year, the Goal of the Foundation is to distribute uniforms, shoes, and notebooks to 150 underprivileged students to ensure that every child has access to the resources necessary to achieve their full potentials.
The planning and execution of the school supplies event for 2024 starts in March with preliminary preparations and approval obtained from the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB). During this period, we visit the schools and select the beneficiaries, ensuring that the less privileged pupils received the items. We also reached out to the parents and guardians of the selected pupils to rate their poverty scores to ensure that the items were distributed fairly.
Our approach is done thoroughly and meticulously, and we are able to achieve our goal of providing school supplies to the most vulnerable students.This process makes it possible to maintain a positive impact in the education sector. We continue to work tirelessly towards achieving this objective.
The Foundation, in its commitment to enhancing the quality of education in the region, recently provided 150 essential school supplies to three schools that were carefully selected from three local government areas in Edo State, namely Oredo. The provision of these educational resources to the schools played a pivotal role in contributing to the academic development of the students.
The program was a resounding success, with all pupils selected for the program showing up to receive the items made available to them. They were particularly delighted to receive the items and pledged to always attend school to learn and make use of the items to aid their learning activities.
Ebonyida foundation event is on a yearly basis. The number of beneficiaries will be three schools in Edo State with a total of 150 students
