Dr. Ogbara, founder of the AAE Foundation, has been a beacon of hope for many young girls in Akwa Ibom State. Over the past seven years, her foundation has sponsored over 500 female students by providing them with WAEC and JAMB forms free of charge to support their academic journey. In a bold and inspiring move, she has increased the number to 1,000 students this year, reaffirming her dedication to empowering the girl-child through education.
