Ndi Uduma School Project

Every child deserves access to quality education. Yet, in Ndi Uduma Awoke, access to schools—particularly well-equipped ones—is still limited.

Community Secondary School in Ndi Uduma Awoke, Ohafia L.G.A, Abia State, Nigeria, is a mixed, junior secondary school that has recently expanded to include senior classes. However, the school currently lacks essential infrastructure. In the 2024 exams, students faced significant challenges, with rain leaking through the roof and flooding the hall, disrupting their exams.

Access to Shine’s first project is the construction of a school hall and Learning Resource Centre (LRC) at Ndi Uduma Awoke Community Secondary School. This new facility will create a secure, well-equipped environment for learning, exams, and community gatherings, serving as a lasting resource for students and the broader community.

Ms. Jane Ura, a lead trustee with deep ties to the area, is working closely with the community school committee to bring this vision to life.

The Vision

We learned that several age grades had come together to fulfil their dream of building a secondary school which would provide their children with the knowledge and skills they needed to fulfil their God-given potential, break out of poverty and build a better more sustainable future.

Despite huge financial sacrifices to themselves, and parents raised funds to start building the school but funds quickly ran out and work came to a standstill.

Ensuring Quality Education for Every Child in Ndi Uduma Awoke

Our Goals: To construct a school hall, establish a Learning Resource Center, renovate dilapidated classrooms, build a science lab, and address the teacher shortage.

Fundraising Success

Inspired by the energy and enthusiasm of the community, Access to Shine is working hard to raise funds for this project which will eventually allow over 260 children to have access to quality education.

The lent of 2023 has been extremely busy with a few very generous donors coming forward together with fund raising events featuring sponsored walks, school house competitions to meet the cost of the first phase of this school project.

We partner with local communities and impact partners to facilitate projects around the common goal of unlocking God-given potential of every child.

For the first phase of this project, we seek strategic specialist partners in education, project design, and engineering consultancy.
