The Fembol Social Impact Grant (SIG) 2025 is now open for applications, inviting young Nigerians with bold and sustainable ideas to apply. The program, an initiative of Fembol Logistics, aims to empower students who are ready to build impactful projects that can create measurable change in their communities.
Applications opened on October 25, 2025, and will close on November 16, 2025. The announcement of selected participants will take place on November 25, 2025, while the Innovation Bootcamp and Demo Day are scheduled for December 4 to 6, 2025, in Lagos.
According to the organizers, “The Fembol Social Impact Grant 2025 is designed to support young innovators developing sustainable, scalable, and impactful ideas — whether for-profit, nonprofit, or hybrid models.” The company emphasized that the program will provide equity-free funding, mentorship, and brand visibility to help young changemakers grow their initiatives.
The grant focuses on ideas that address key areas such as social impact, entrepreneurship, technology, environmental sustainability, education, health, logistics, and career development. Fembol noted that “any idea with measurable positive impact in Nigeria is welcome.”
The grant is open to Nigerian students currently enrolled in undergraduate or Master’s programs at recognized institutions. Applicants must be between 16 and 28 years old and can apply individually or in teams of two to four members. Each applicant must submit an innovative idea that addresses a social, business, or sustainability challenge within Nigeria.
Shortlisted candidates will attend a three-day fully funded Innovation Bootcamp in Lagos, where they will receive expert mentorship and pitch their projects on Demo Day. Participants will also benefit from a six-week mentorship program following the bootcamp.
Successful applicants will receive up to ₦3 million in equity-free funding to develop their projects, along with nationwide media visibility through Fembol Group’s platforms. “Our goal is to empower Nigeria’s next generation of innovators by providing them with the tools and support needed to create lasting impact,” the company stated.
Interested students are encouraged to apply online via the official Fembol SIG Portal Link before November 16, 2025, and join the information webinar scheduled for November 4, 2025, at 5 PM for guidance on the application process.
