Foundation trains 300 children in coding, vocational skills

The Beyond Borders Foundation has trained over 300 children in coding, graphic design, content creation, and other vocational skills during a three-day bootcamp in Isheri-Olofin, Ogun State. The initiative, which is the foundation's first of its kind, aimed to bridge the opportunity gap among children in underserved communities by providing them with practical skills and a quality learning experience similar to those available to children in affluent neighbourhoods.

The foundation's board member, Tobi Durosinmi-Etti, emphasized that the programme was designed to ensure that children in less privileged communities had access to opportunities and learning experiences on par with those in higher-class areas.
