Intellectual Giants in Africa Foundation(INGAF) has reached her remarkable milestone of five(5) years.
Our Executive Director, Amb. Emmanuel Idiagi started this vision of “raising Intellectual Giants in Africa” in a classroom with just three(3) kids in a community called Alugu-Lungu in Abuja-Nigeria.
So far, our achievements have given us high hopes for a brighter future:
โ Currently, we have Delegates in all the Geopolitical Zones in Nigeria.
โ We have partly funded the school fees of some youths and children, distributed free educational materials to them, enhanced their comprehension, writing and communication skills of hundreds of students in various communities in Abuja-Nigeria.
โ In September 2022, for the first time in history, our non-profit organization(INGAF) partnered with The Murdock-Thompson Center for Teachers in the USA to organize an Innovative Teachers Conference and Award Event in Abuja-Nigeria; an event that recognized, celebrated, and awarded Eleven(11) Innovative teachers from Nigeria and Ivory Coast with a prize fund of $1000USD each. In September 2023, nine(9) teachers in these countries won the prize fund. Over the last twenty four(24) months, we have given out $1000 each to nineteen(19) teachers.

The success stories are mind-blowing.

Our gratitude knows no bounds to the consistent support we get from all our sponsors and donors around the globe, coupled with the hard work, creativity, excellence and leadership of our team. These have been pivotal to our journey.
