The Foundation promises to pay school fees of ₦50,000 for each of the top 10 students, split into ₦25,000 for each of two terms.
In addition to tuition, the Foundation will provide further financial support for books and school materials.
The Foundation has been supporting education for the past two years, focusing on assisting the less privileged. Its mission is to stimulate the economy and improve society at large.
The Foundation’s President and Founder, Sean Oluseun Ajayi, has urged Nigerians at home and in the diaspora to take personal responsibility for Nigeria’s development. He emphasized that no child should go hungry or be denied access to education.
The Foundation currently supports 20 schools and 20 children, with plans to expand across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory in Nigeria, as well as across Africa. Its goal is to empower Nigerian youth to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to the nation’s progress.
By investing in education, the Foundation believes a crime-free society and a brighter future for Nigerian youth can be achieved, enabling them to solve national challenges.
“It takes a village to train a child,” said HRH Queen Mother Amb. Amina Temitope Ajayi, popularly known as “Mama Diaspora,” a member of the Foundation’s board of directors. She called on Nigerians in the diaspora to contribute to the development of Nigeria.
“I want all my people in the diaspora to return to their alma maters and give back to their communities for the development of Nigeria and Nigerians,” Mama Diaspora advised.
