At-Risk Youth Education Sponsorship Program

At Empower Develop Dignify (EDD), in partnership with GlobalGiving and generous supporters like you, we are proud to reflect on the life-changing impact we have made together. Your unwavering commitment has helped us transform the lives of many former street children into empowered young leaders—individuals who are now driving change in their communities, contributing to their families, and building a brighter future for our country.

Currently, we are supporting 28 students who have just completed the academic year. Among them, 9 students are sitting for their national exams at both O’Level and A’Level. We wish them the best of luck as they complete this important milestone.

Looking back, we celebrate many success stories—young people who have risen from challenging beginnings to become role models in society. One remarkable example is Gratian, who was among the students supported through our GlobalGiving campaigns between 2015 and 2018. He went on to complete his Master’s degree in Education in China and is now preparing to begin his PhD. Gratian’s journey is just one of hundreds of inspiring stories from our alumni who are succeeding in higher education or thriving in the workforce.

These achievements are only possible because of your continued support. Today, we still have 19 students who need your help to continue their studies in the 2025–2026 academic year. They are determined, resilient, and full of potential—ready to become the next generation of changemakers in their communities.

Your contribution, no matter the size, truly makes a difference. Please stay connected with us and consider supporting the journey of these bright young minds. Together, we are shaping a better future.

Thank you for being part of this mission.
