EbonyIda Foundation is dedicated to creating opportunities for children, youth, and women to benefit from education and economic empowerment programs through our carefully planned initiatives. We believe that a quality basic education equips children and youth with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate daily challenges and pursue economic and lifelong learning prospects. Additionally, it serves as a crucial catalyst for poverty reduction, economic growth, gender equality, and social development.
Our approach was thorough and meticulous, and we were able to achieve our goal of providing school supplies to the most vulnerable students. We remain committed to making a positive impact in the education sector and will continue to work tirelessly towards achieving this objective.
The Foundation, in its commitment to enhancing the quality of education in the region, will be providing three public schools, school supplies which includes uniforms, shoes and writing materials in the beginning of fall, 2024.
In addition, our organization is dedicated to the implementation of tailored programs aimed at addressing the needs of disadvantaged children and youth in Edo State, Nigeria using our newly renovated training center. Our efforts will still be concentrated on the provision of essential school supplies. We will also offer skills training in fashion design to youths and teens who have discontinued their education, and administer financial assistance to facilitate a November Christmas celebration for impoverished households and the less fortunate pupils who lack the means to procure these items.
BENEFICIARY INSTITUTIONS
Three Public primary schools within Edo state are carefully selected to benefit from this gesture. The schools are;
Payne Primary School-Edokpolor Road
Olua Primary School- Uselu share
Emokpae Primary School, Mission Road
MODE OF BENEFICIARY SELECTION
The identification of beneficiaries will entail collaboration with the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) and the school principals (Head Mistress/Head Master). These key stakeholders possess comprehensive knowledge of the students and their unique challenges related to acquiring essential school supplies. Subsequently, upon acquiring the students' details, the EbonyIda Foundation's personnel will conduct interviews with the selected students to evaluate their socio-economic status and determine the most suitable candidates for the support program. In furtherance of our assessment process, home visits will be carried out to the residences of selected
We also use the oportunity to inform any of our Donors who will like to visit our Newly renovated training center located in Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria.
We are committed to making sure no child is left behind in every endeavor they so chooses!!! Thanks
