They had ever hosted volunteers ranging from one week to six months. Their past works had been more of educational promotion, economic development and job creation. No wonder they have founded FEDEP to enhance their community development projects in respect of Educational programs and Economic activities .

In achieving its mission and vision, FEDEP had the following objectives:

  1. Creation of employment opportunity for the youth, hence reducing unemployment and rural urban migration.
  2. Seeking appropriate funds to ensure that children from economically deprived homes receive adequate nutrition, primary healthcare and at least secondary education.
  3. Establishing a community clinic (health center) to enable the rural folks and the less fortunate or economically deprived families to have access to health facilities.
  4. Training the youth especially young women in acquisition of appropriate knowledge in vocational skills and cushioning them with micro credit to make them become independent.
  5. Building of capacity for women and the rural folks through “susu” and micro credit loan scheme
  6. Organizing youth forum and workshops for sensitization programs on pertinent issues affecting the society such as: Teenage Pregnancy, inferiority complex (lack of realization of self importance), Broken Homes, streetism, Pick-pocketing, Drug Abuse, Ignorance, etc
  7. Creation of conducive and enabling environment and training of good citizens through enforcement of discipline among the youth.

In achieving its objectives by means of realizing its vision and mission:

1. The organisation has established a basic school. The school has the population of  515 with 32 staff.

2. It has set up a Gari processing center-a basic rural economic activity for women to help them improve their standard of living.

3. The organisation has also formed Peer Educators Club (PEC) in many basic schools. The members of the club are educated about the pertinent issues affecting the society and advised to disseminate the message to their peers.

4. The organization’s cultural and drama group has suffered a lot from its membership. As a result the founder and the management of the organization’s basic school have resolved finally to incorporate drama and culture in academic curriculum. Having done that the drama and cultural groups have been simply revived, having the membership of the school children.

EDUCATING PEOPLE TAKES EVERYONE .
