Providing educational opportunities to disadvantaged youths in Nigeria

Edike Foundation is a non-profit organisation established in 2023, dedicated to empowering disadvantaged youth in Nigeria through education research, scholarships, and workforce readiness.

Our work is grounded in research into education accessibility and student realities in Nigeria. Through scholarships, we support students who have been unable to complete their education due to the loss of a parent to medical-related conditions or terminal illnesses. And through Gown to Town, we equip young people with the practical skills and networks to transition successfully into the workforce.

Stories From Our Beneficiaries

Behind every statistic is a student whose life changed because of access to education.

This scholarship eased the financial pressure on my family and let me focus on my studies with greater peace of mind. Being selected has pushed me to work harder, stay disciplined, and pursue excellence.
