In Nigeria alone, we have impacted positively on the lives of over 5,000 youths and women. We started in 2014 as Ezihe Foundation and transitioned as the Ugwumba Center for Leadership Development in Africa in 2019 to be able to reach more young people across the African continent, starting with Nigeria.
