Short Summary of TAF's Journey
Our pilot event was themed ‘Give A Gift’ Project in partnership with Abuja Global Shapers and Read2Succeed on December 15, 2017 in Model Primary School, Maitama. We taught 60 students how to write a vision board and manage their time. TAF presented gifts to three students who stood out in the vision board exercise which included.
In 2018, among so many interventions we donated chairs and tables and educational materials to LEA Primary School, Airport Road, Durumi, Abuja. Leaving all teachers and students ecstatic.
We held a day’s event teaching over 300 students in three schools at the IDP Camp Kuchingoro. We gave out text books and writing materials to help improve their aptitude to learning.
In line with our vision, we organized an employability skills training for youths within Abuja. The training took place on November 23, 2019, with twenty (20) participants. The training was facilitated by Mr. Isaiah Amonye, Mr. Isaac Gimbason and Ms. Chiamaka Okoye on three focus areas: Networking and Positioning, Effective Time Management, CV Reviews and Interview preparation.
