" My passion for promoting peace and justice, combined with my experience in community service, motivates my work. As a Millennium Fellow, I look forward to enhancing my skills in community organizing and expanding my impact. I am excited to collaborate with others who share my commitment to making a positive difference.

Millennium Fellowship Project: Nigeria food security access project
The Nigeria Food Security Access Project focuses on reducing hunger and improving nutrition for school children while supporting sustainable food systems. As part of this initiative, I work with schools to address food insecurity by implementing feeding programs and educating students about the importance of good nutrition for their growth and learning. I also collaborate with farmers and local citizens to improve agricultural practices, boost food production, and ensure that communities have reliable access to nutritious meals. This project is about more than just providing food—it’s about building stronger, healthier communities that can sustain themselves in the long term.
