Education for All

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”

— Nelson Mandela

Give the gift of a better education

Imagine sending your child to school knowing that they would have no chair on which to sit, no table at which to write and no textbooks from which to study. Picture children so desperate to learn that they sit, day after day, on hard concrete floors, struggling to copy down lessons from battered chalkboards. The classrooms they sit in are nothing like what decent classrooms should be: dilapidated and without proper windows, doors, or adequate furniture.

With this acute need in mind, Helping Hands for Education (HHE) was established in April 2015 to provide educational facilities and resources to schools in Ogbomosho and to give children an opportunity to be educated and have a better start in life.

HHE aims to:

  • Better equip schools and students in Ogbomosho

  • Provide common learning resources for the benefit of all local schools

  • Build and run an educational hub and lending library for adults and children

  • Provide basic healthcare education and training facilities for the local community
