WHAT IS PROJECT BUILD A SCHOOL?
It is an NGO that started in 2018, in the aftermath of the farmers/herders crises. Many children in the Kelvictex Nursery and primary school, located in yagba community of Northbank Markurdi were displaced and left without access to education.
This school was a community driven school that was built by Mrs Abubu Victoria in 2016. The school started by Mrs Abubu offering free lessons to the underprivileged children of that community but Soon it become a school.
The school was tuition free, so the school couldn't provide all the education needed by the children and the children were at the risk of missing out on vital education opportunities, hindering their future, prospect and perpetuating the cycle of poverty.
Project build a school recognized how urgent the situation was and it was addressed by restructuring, renovating and building of the Kelvictex Nursery and primary school. And this is the mission of this NGO to other location in Nigeria.
This paved way for other projects in Benue State and neighboring state like Nasarawa State. And the beginning of something impactful in Nigeria.
