" "I love to think big whenever I envision any project that will impact my society. I'm excited to be a Millennium Fellow because I know that while I'm starting small and doing my part, a platform has been provided to me that would help me scale effortlessly thereby helping me impact more and more people."

Millennium Fellowship Project: Everyone Can Code Initiative

This project is all teaching youths in orphanages how to use computers and with time, various digital and computer skills. We will set up a good-enough computer lab with internet access and get volunteers to work with us and teach them. Our goal is to give these youths the opportunity to develop valuable tech skills that could open up future opportunities for them. It's about leveling the playing field and providing resources that many of us take for granted. We believe everybody deserves a chance to learn and grow, regardless of their circumstances. This project is our way of making a positive impact and giving back to those in need. The project's starting point is Vine Heritage Home, Kuje, FCT.

About the Millennium Fellow

Osaze Samuelkaris Ogedegbe is a young and bright student majoring in Information Technology at Nile University of Nigeria. He grew up seeing and even relating with lots of underprivileged children who were not able to afford basic amenities. That background has been a driving force for him to pursue his education judiciously in order for him to provide Quality Education (SDG 4) to those who cannot afford it. Due to the technology nature of Osaze's major, he has decided to help underprivileged kids up skill and even stand a chance to compete in today's fierce labour market.
