Happy birthday to our President and Founder Dr. Jumai Ahmadu
The high rate of poverty and youth under empowerment/development, have adversely affected the social and economic development of Nigeria and African at large, and as such the need to adopt international best practices to address these issues become imperative. In 2014 as youth corps member, a vision came; “How can I contribute to the social and economic development of the society particularly Nigeria?; where youth and indigent ones will have the opportunities and enabling atmosphere to reach their full potentials regardless of race, ethnicity, income, or gender, and also carry on the philanthropic work of my grandmother- MADAM EKEH AGNES?”
In 2018, due to my passion and belief that it is possible to make a change in the society, AGNES EKEH FOUNDATION was established. But off course passion and belief can only act as a motivating factor; as there became the need for knowledge and skills to effectively and efficiently run and manage the organization.
Then, I enrolled, graduated, and volunteered for INSTITUTE FOR HUMANITARIAN STUDIES AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT, NIGERIA, which earned me the OUTSTANDING VOLUNTEER AWARD of the Institute as a result of my performance.
Institute for Humanitarian Studies and Social Development is Nigeria's foremost Institute providing alternative education in the social and non-profit sector with her motto as; Advancing Humanity through Professionalism and Knowledge Building. The institute is in partnership with 'Hope for Children' CRC policy Center, Cyprus, National Boundary Commission (The Presidency), National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA, the Presidency), and supported by United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and many other national and international Agencies and Institutions..
