OUR MISSION To provide sustainable programs that generate positive change for Nigerian children and their communities. OUR VISION The vision of A2S is that each child/person in Nigeria finds a dignified path to a successful life and is empowered to live out God’s plan for a future filled with hope. Essential to communities being lifted out of poverty are holistic programs that address the physical, spiritual and psychological needs of currently struggling communities. A2S envisions communities in which individuals can be productive members of society, living with mutual respect and love for one another. The vision of the After School Academy is to transform and empower the lives of Nigerian children through academics and athletics, increasing the percentage of students who achieve higher levels of education and thereby reducing poverty in Nigeria. We believe education, leadership and teamwork skills, faith, and community and family support are critical to helping young people achieve their goals. A2S envisions a future where socioeconomic status does not prevent a child from attending school. We aim to create long-term, sustainable growth by working in communities with local support.
