Digital Skills & Online Safety 4 Nigerian Children

We would love to appreciate you for your continued generosity to deliver digital literacy education to the young ones. With your support, the Digital Skills and Safety (DASP) project is creating positive change every day in the lives of public-school students and building the foundation for a brighter future. Together with 65 other donors, we raised $6,383 of $49,800 for this mission.  

In July 2022, we trained 20 students in a computer appreciation programme. The students were introduced to basic concepts and fundamentals of computers. The students were able to create tables, rows and columns in MS Word.

Computer proficiency is increasingly essential for relevance in today's computer-driven society.  TechQuest STEM Academy is committed to continuing to empower young adults in this area as shown in the picture. The diverse skills they are acquiring, thanks to YOUR support, are helping to prepare them for a great future. 

Your donations helped these kids to be internet awesome and piqued their interest in cyber security and programming to build viable products. We could not have achieved this without your donation, and we are grateful for this opportunity. 

The “Digital Access and Safety Project (DASP)", primarily targeted at public and low-fee-paying schools, aims to increase awareness and knowledge on how to use the internet safely and safeguard their identity and address bullying and harassment online. It also introduces the students to how to filter/verify internet content and experiences that technology and the internet expose children to, while also enhancing their practical digital literacy levels.

We are hoping to raise $43, 417 more to upskill and equip a minimum of 500 students. Please consider a little more support. Also, share this with more partners. Thank you so much for your invaluable support!

With gratitude,

Dr Itoro Emembolu,

Executive Director, TechQuest STEM Academy
