2026/2027 Pilot Programme

₦895kSchool contribution per child
₦2.26mExternal support per child
₦113mExternal funding requirement
₦158mFundraising target
The Challenge

Talent alone cannot take a child to school.

For many children living in orphanages, children's homes and vulnerable circumstances, the greatest barrier to education is access.

Why this matters

A child may be gifted in Mathematics, Literature, Science, Technology or the Arts, yet struggle to attend school because of tuition costs, transportation, meals, uniforms, books and other basic necessities.

We believe a child's circumstances should not determine the limits of their potential.

Our School's Commitment

Grace Meridian School is already contributing the educational infrastructure, teaching, supervision and school capacity needed to make the programme possible.

  • 50% tuition subsidy
  • 50% books & supplies
  • Teachers
  • Classrooms
  • Academic supervision
  • Examinations
  • Counselling
  • School administration
Our Solution

One place. One opportunity. One child at a time.

The Open Doors Education Initiative provides school placement for children who might otherwise be unable to access quality education.
