About FAME

The FAME Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides leadership education and skills training to youths in secondary schools across Nigeria.

How We Work

We tackle the quality of learning crisis by partnering with youth, schools, and governments to design and deliver education solutions that equip young people in Nigeria with the values and skills to lead themselves, overcome gender inequities, succeed in school, create change in their communities, and succeed in life. By including an additional leadership and skills-based subject in secondary education, we can deliberately equip students to have a positive impact on Nigeria’s economic growth and development. Our flagship programs are FAME Global Leadership, FAME Lead, and Mentoring Support Services.
