Description
Greetings, From Warri Delta State, Nigeria!
We are Zion and Elohor, a married couple who are very passionate teachers and change agents. We started the project, after seeing personally how many children in underserved communities in Warri, Delta State, lacked access to an education.
It all began with a basic dream—to enable a small number of children to break the cycle of poverty by education. What started as a little project to sponsor a few children rapidly expanded into something far more. Currently we are operating two tuition-free schools; we offer education, mentoring, healthcare, and basic resources to more than 3250 underprivileged children who would not otherwise have access to learning.
Our project empowers entire families and uplifts the community by offering:
Free primary education for underprivileged children
Training for local teachers to raise the standard of instruction.
Healthy school lunches and medical support for our pupils.
A safe and loving surrounding where every child can dream large.
Travellers and volunteers eager to make a difference in the lives of out-of-school children and engage our students, teach, mentor, and experience the warmth of Nigerian culture would be much welcomed.
Your time, abilities, and presence can transform life!
Join us in Warri, Nigeria, and help one child at a time to build a better future.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Beyond traditional travel, a cultural exchange in Warri, Nigeria, gives visitors an opportunity to really interact with local customs, language, and way of life. By means of practical exercises, volunteers support community development, technology, and education while cultivating a greater respect for grassroots projects and sustainable impact.
Volunteering here helps one to understand the social and educational issues facing Nigeria as well as to develop worldwide empathy and connection. Warri residents are renowned for their friendliness, fortitude, and energetic nature. Sharing stories, music, and customs emphasising their rich cultural legacy, they kindly welcome guests. Inspired by their tenacity and hope, travellers often carry forward ideas of community service and endurance.

Volunteers can teach STEM subjects, mentor kids, lead creative workshops in music and arts, document inspirational stories via photography and film, or help with web development and IT support.
To guarantee children have safe access to education, hands-on involvement also spans helping improve school facilities, supporting clean water initiatives, and fundraising for transport. Every little or large gift makes a difference.
Whether your work is teaching, designing, or inventing, your abilities and enthusiasm will help to shape a better future while immersing you in the warmth, resilience, and cultural richness of the Niger Delta community.
