According to the administrative secretary of the foundation, Umar Bain in a statement he made available to newsmen, one of the key objectives of the foundation is to encourage and support financially disadvantaged students in their pursuit of higher education through scholarship/bursary awards.

He said it also aimed at restoring hope among students who are at the verge of giving up on their studies, due to their inability to pay their tuition fees, as a result of economic and financial hardships.

“Drawing from the wisdom of the Chinese proverb that says, if you are planning for a year, sow rice; if you are planning for a decade, plant trees; if you are planning for a lifetime, educate people, it is this vision that has  inspired supporting education of students in Southern Kaduna communities to safeguard the future and engender sustainable development,” he stated.

He noted that the efforts have long been  ongoing and includes educational support at the local governments through the building and rehabilitation of schools and vocational centers; Free JAMB Form initiatives; provision of books and computers to secondary schools, scholarship schemes, amongst others.
