Education
One of the most important investments a country can make towards a brighter future is the education of its children.
At CONNAK Foundation, we are steadfastly committed to nurturing educational development through our comprehensive scholarship programs. Our mission revolves around providing fully funded scholarship awards to indigent children at both secondary and tertiary levels. By doing so, we aim to bridge the affordability gap in quality education for children from low-income families, offering them a transformative opportunity to shatter the chains of generational poverty.
Since our inception in 2012 with just nine beneficiaries, our scholarship program has grown remarkably. We proudly support 380 students nationwide of which 179 students hail from the 17 local government areas in Abia state. We understand the challenges these deserving students face and have tailored our support to address their diverse needs.

For our junior secondary students, we ensure a seamless educational journey by providing daily transportation to and from school using dedicated school buses. By doing so, we ease the logistical burden on parents and create an environment where learning is the sole focus. Our senior secondary students, on the other hand, benefit from the immersive experience of boarding schools, allowing them to concentrate on their studies while avoiding distractions.
Our commitment extends beyond financial assistance. We equip our students with the tools they need to succeed. From school uniforms to sandals and a complete array of textbooks, exercise books, laptops, and other essential materials, we ensure no aspect of their educational journey is hindered by lack.
But we don’t stop there. We understand that a holistic education is essential for well-rounded growth. That’s why our students actively engage in various educational activities that empower them to excel globally. Our STEM Summer Camp ignites their curiosity through hands-on science, technology, engineering, and math activities. Sports activities, field trips, and creativity camps are also integral components, fostering physical exercise, teamwork, and an environment of fun and learning.
