" Networking and collaboration are part of my core values for growth and development.
Being a Millennium Fellow enhances these skills measurably. The skills of public speaking and communication I will gain from the Millennium Fellowship will make my impact on the present generation of teenagers and children more tangible.
I'm excited to explore and improve my communication skills through learning and practice. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Project HEAL
The aim of the HEAL project is to raise awareness about sexual abuse done to kids and help victims of abuse to heal and grow to be highflyers in their careers and the society at large. The plan is simple. We plan to organize workshops in Primary and secondary schools around Ondo State and speak on: 1. Ways to protect themselves from sexual abuse 2. How to speak up especially to their parents or counsellors Our aim is to reach out to 10,000 children before 2025 ends and bring them on a path of healing and a purpose-driven life We also plan to collaborate with NGOs to bring this project to life
