Millennium Fellowship Project: Future Focus Initiative
The Future Focus Initiative is a project under the Millennium Fellowship aimed at empowering public secondary school students by promoting the importance of education beyond secondary school. The initiative addresses the alarming trend of students abandoning education for quick-money schemes like internet fraud and prostitution. Through interactive sessions, we provide motivation, guidance, and resources to help students envision a brighter future through education.
