" Being a Millennium Fellow means I have access to a bigger platform where I could learn and develop skill sets that would equip me for the amazing projects I have ahead . How great a nation is or can be is measured by how stable and nourished its societies are and being able to do just that by joining this prestigious fellowship has me excited for the great accomplishment to come! "
Millennium Fellowship Project: HopeWell
Hope wells was an idea that i got one day after scrolling through Instagram and realizing that the lack of education in the society mostly amongst women and children meant that there was a prevalence of unwanted pregnancies amongst women especially minors in my society. The idea of Hope Wells is to be being a Non-governmental organization that would focus on the drastic reduction of teenage pregnancies amongst minors in the society by focusing on increasing their access to quality and affordable education for boys and girls alike.
