" Seeing a progress in health and wellbeing fuel my drive and thinking. Being a part of Millennium Fellowship will help me reach a wide range of people effectively using the three core values Millennium Fellowship stands for (empathy, inclusion and humility). The skills I gain from Millennium Fellowship will make my social impact in schools and communities more tangible and aligned with the UNAI principles and SDGs. I am excited about this opportunity and I promise to make good use of it. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Clean Hands, Bright Future.
The project carried out a sensitization program at His Grace Nursery and Primary School, Oke Ose, Ilorin, focusing on personal hygiene for children under 10. Students were educated on the importance of handwashing and taught proper techniques to prevent the spread of germs. The project successfully provided a makeshift tap, hand washing soap, and accountability charts for students to monitor hygiene at home. All set goals were achieved, ensuring both awareness and practical hygiene practices.
