Mission Statement

To be illiterate is to be cut off from yourself and the world community. It is to live a half-life mired in frustration and unfulfilled human potential. Project Educate Africa Inc., by way of collecting books, raising funds and equipping existing and functional libraries in Nigeria, plays its part in the transformation and empowerment of the people of Nigeria. We also provide tuition scholarship for indigent students who otherwise would be on the streets or farms wasting the skills and intelligence.

Description

Since 2006, Project Educate Africa Inc has collected, shipped, donated over 300,000 current college textbooks to university and seminary libraries across Nigeria. Project Educate Africa Inc has also provided tuition scholarships to lots of students in Elementary, High School and College levels of education in Nigeria. We have also facilitated the construction and equipping of some physical building structures in Seminaries and Church affiliated educational institutions, respecting the intention of the donors. In June of 2023, the current Nigerian Government issued a new policy of withdrawing all financial support to Nigerian Universities. This policy presents us with a new challenge, as many students are unable to pay the new tuition and cost of schooling in most schools. The demand for tuition support has risen very sharply. Project Educate Africa Inc. is managed by a 100% of volunteer force. We do not have any paid employees. All our volunteers are gainfully employed.
