Millennium Fellowship Project: Public Community Service (PCS)
Public Community Service was a project that began on January 2022 by a group of five teenagers. It started as a scholarship project under Rise Global Challenge but has transcended into becoming a passion for every member of the group. We had the plan and an objective of ensuring zero waste in the local community in Abia State, Aba to be precise. This project this project was headed by my friend and former secondary school classmate David Uchechukwu Mokwe as part of his scholarship project of which he eventually won and currently he studying environmental Engineering at the University of Chicago. We carried out our objective through ensuring proper waste disposal system in our local community such as organizing voluntary community sanitation movements, we went to secondary schools enlighten students on the importance of proper refuse disposal we also posted flyers and billboards which tends to enlighten the public on the dangers of improper refuse disposal. For the meantime the project is on hold as we lack the appropriate funds to continue with it. Secondly most of us have gone into different Fields a studies and are being occupied with our academics.
