YouthHubAfrica supported two public schools (Government Secondary School, Ilorin, Kwara state, and Perfect Memorial School, Mwari, Bauchi state) in Nigeria in 2021 and 2022 respectively. These schools have a combined average population of 2700 learners, mostly children from low-income/poor/underprivileged homes. YouthHubAfrica equipped each of the school's ICT labs with 31 computers, UPS, a projector, and other accessories. After the setup, YouthHubAfrica plans to provide internet access in each school to enhance the quality of teaching and learning through ICT.
During the official commissioning of one of the ICT Lab took place on the 8th of November, 2022 and it began with the arrival of guests and students at the School Hall at 10 am and the arrival of the representative of the Chief of Staff to the President, Federal Republic of Nigeria in person of Prof. Suleiman .E. Bogoro amongst other dignitaries. Upon arrival, the event kicked off fully with a recitation of the National Anthem.
A welcome address was given by Rotimi Olawale- the Executive Director of YouthHubAfrica who applauded the efforts of the school management for the support and also expressed the hope that the students of the citadel of learning would benefit from the initiative and would emerge to become productive members of their community and at the forefront of the digital revolution in Africa.
So far, the campaign has been able to help us raise 9 USD.
