Out-of-School Education & Child Development Programme

Magboro Under Bridge, Ogun State | 2024

Introduction

Meeting Children Where They Are

In 2024, PFEN Foundation carried out a six-week educational outreach for vulnerable out-of-school boys and girls living under Magboro Bridge in Ogun State.

The initiative was created to provide learning opportunities for children who faced barriers to formal education.

Through community-based learning activities, participants received support in basic English literacy, communication, and numeracy, creating a foundation for continued learning and development.

For PFEN Foundation, the initiative was about more than teaching lessons. It was about creating an opportunity for children to learn, discover their potential, and take steps toward a different future.
