The Beyond Borders Foundation recently conducted a three-day bootcamp in Isheri-Olofin, Ogun State, training over 300 children in coding, graphic design, content creation, food preparation, baking, and hair creation. The initiative aims to bridge the opportunity gap for children in underserved communities by providing them with practical skills and experiences akin to those available in affluent neighborhoods.
Board member Tobi Durosinmi-Etti emphasized that the program was the foundation's inaugural bootcamp and intended to make a more profound impact by focusing on the overall welfare and development of children, not just their education. The foundation plans to replicate the bootcamp in other communities, starting with Lagos, to introduce financial literacy to children at an early age.
