Many of the young people that have dropped out of school are unskilled, unemployed, and unable to get back into formal education but we have plans to get as many as possible off the streets and on to learning a trade.
Please get in touch if you'd like to sponsor one or more young persons and we'll get them sep up with a trainer/mentor. We particularly need sponsors for young girls wanting to be trained in dress-making and fashion designing.

Meet Master Delight Ogbonna...
Delight is one of the beneficiaries of our scholarship programme, and it's so delightful to hear the optimism in his voice, he would love to be a lawyer when he grows up!
And the other exciting news to share is that YOU have made it possible for Every Village Matters to start this amazing young person off on his journey to realising his dream.
Your kind donation has helped us to award scholarships to 10 children from Holy Rosary Model Nursery/Primary School this year, including tuition fees, all the recommended text and exercise books, 2 school uniforms, 1 sports outfit, 1 pair of school shoes and socks, and 1 school bag.
