Details On Activities:
The project is promoting universal basic education projects in primary and secondary schools in Nigeria to reduce ignorance and illiteracy among the youth in, and out of schools. We are contributing to integral and intellectual development through effective leadership building and institution of intensive reading culture in the society for social growth, poverty reduction and building of peace and harmony among youth in the Nigeria and Africa through seminars, workshop, conferences, concerts and contest.

Our vision is to see a Nigeria, Africa and a world free of ignorance and illiteracy, where leadership is good and young people have the opportunity to realize their potentials and pursue their dreams and aspirations in an atmosphere of peace and sustainable development. We are also motivated to encouraging intense research work through the Internet and the cultivation of books reading habit as a culture of life in our society. Reading of Positive information to the ears and the mind we trust saves and makes life fulfilled.
