ABOUT US
ASCEND THROUGH LEARNING
Welcome to Ascend Education Foundation (AEF), where we're dedicated to transforming lives through education, locally and globally. We're more than a foundation; we're a movement driven by a singular purpose: to break barriers and unlock potential through learning.
In Nigeria and beyond, millions are denied access to quality education, perpetuating cycles of poverty and inequality. But at AEF, we're committed to changing this narrative.From rural villages to urban slums, we're fighting to ensure that every Nigerian has access to quality education, regardless of their circumstances.
Our goal is clear: to provide a unique opportunity for individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds to receive a well-rounded education and life skills that empower them to thrive. Whether it's basic schooling or vocational training, our aim is to equip individuals with the tools they need to build a brighter future for themselves and their communities.
Join us in our global mission for education. Together, we can Ascend to new heights and create a world where every individual has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
OUR AIMS & OBJECTIVES
- Partner with relevant agencies and bodies to provide both formal and informal education to Nigerian youths, especially those disadvantaged by geographic location, ethnicity, religion, social status, disability, class, or gender.
- Ensure that education is basic yet robust in content and depth at the primary and secondary levels.
- Reach children in underprivileged and underfunded areas across Nigeria.
- Provide free adult and vocational education programs to empower individuals to thrive in today's society.
