One Scholar at a Time
Through full awards, we remove financial barriers so promising students can pursue secondary education. Applicants submit required information and documents, and then join our thriving community of learners.
Guided by Faith
Our one‑on‑one discipleship pairs each scholar with a mentor who offers spiritual guidance, leadership training, and financial literacy coaching, ensuring students flourish both in character and competence.
Skills That Sustain
We partner with local vocational centers and workshops to teach market‑relevant skills, equipping youth for dignified livelihoods.
"EmpowerED changed my story. I used to believe primary school was the end, but now I’m in JSS 2, daring to dream of university and the life I once thought impossible"

EmpowerEd was founded out of
Ayomikun Olarinoye's unwavering commitment to see
young people discover their purpose and reach their full
potential. From an early age, she observed how countless brilliant
students were limited—not by a lack of ability, but by the absence
of access to quality education, mentorship, and meaningful
opportunities.
During her academic journey, Ayomikun felt a profound calling to
bridge this gap. She envisioned an empowering platform where
secondary school students could gain practical experience,
cultivate essential skills, and access scholarships that would
open doors to schools otherwise beyond their reach.
What began as a vision has grown into EmpowerEd: a dynamic
community devoted to nurturing the next generation through faith,
mentorship, opportunity, and equitable access to quality
education. EmpowerEd stands as a testament to the belief that with
the right support, every young person has the potential not only
to succeed, but to thrive and lead with purpose.
Every gift, large or small, translates into tuition, books, and life skills training that break cycles of poverty.
