So I decided to join the volunteer team for Lagos State Government Snacks 4 Thought project, Lagos Island was picked for the pilot phase.
The governor expectation for the projects are:
1. Reduction in social menaces and potential security threats to the entire THEMES development agenda.
2. Increase enrolment punctuality, academic performance, retention and progression of pupil to post primary schools.
3. Creating responsible citizens for sustainable development.
4. Improve dietary diversity and nutritional status of school children.
5. Achieving social re-engineering which is strategic for nation building where the less hungry children = less angry youths.
Basically why u volunteered is basically to learn more about the underprivileged children, health challenges, and quality of education in our Basic schools and how as a citizen and Development expert come of with solutions to enable Sustainable Development of our schools.
