North Youth Initiative for Development (NEYIF) has announced the opening of its 2025 Girl-Child Education Support program aimed at empowering less privileged girls through education. The initiative, titled “NEYIF Girl-Child Education Support 2025,” offers free extramural lessons for young female students who have dreams of pursuing careers in healthcare and other academic fields.
According to the organizers, “Are you a young girl with big dreams but limited means? Are you dreaming of becoming a healthcare personnel but have no means? This is your chance to rise, learn, and lead!” The program provides free academic lessons for girls passionate about education but unable to afford quality tutoring.
To qualify, applicants must be female, indigent or resident in Damaturu, have at least five credits including Mathematics and English, and be ambitious to study Nursing, Medicine, or related fields such as Medical Laboratory Science. Candidates must also be of good character, disciplined, have parental or guardian consent, and be willing to attend all sessions.
The six-month program will run from November 4, 2025, to April 2026, on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm. The venue will be announced soon.
NEYIF stated that participants will benefit from a strong academic foundation, JAMB and admission support, financial and scholarship opportunities, as well as career and moral mentorship. Applications are open until November 1, 2025, via forms.gle/TqgnxrjHmNHMNeyo7.
