At the Murtala Muhammed Foundation, we are committed to transforming education in underserved communities. The C4S Initiative is a comprehensive program designed to introduce children in small and underdeveloped communities to the world of technology, enhancing their learning experience.
As part of this initiative, we have provided well-equipped computer laboratories to schools, fostering a technology-enabled learning environment. In 2007, we took a significant step by establishing computer laboratories in 56 public schools across Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones, impacting the lives of over 20,000 students.
Recognizing that teachers play a pivotal role in the classroom, we’ve also invested in their development. We have trained 150 secondary school teachers, empowering them with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively incorporate technology into their teaching methods. We believe that for teachers to be true leaders in the classroom, they must possess a deep understanding of how technological devices can facilitate various learning processes.
Our primary objectives for the C4S Initiative were:
The C4S Initiative has left an indelible mark on our communities. We are proud to share that we have made a total of 78,400 impacts through this initiative, benefiting 100 students annually for 14 years.
At the Murtala Muhammed Foundation, we remain dedicated to advancing education, bridging gaps, and empowering the leaders of tomorrow through initiatives like the C4S Initiative.
Together, we can continue making a positive impact on countless lives.
