Helping students stay on track and move toward a stronger future.
The EAF Education Support programme helps students and young learners reduce financial and structural barriers through education grants, mentorship, learning encouragement, skills pathways, and practical opportunity.
Education can change a life, but many students need support to continue.
Many promising young people have the discipline and desire to learn, but they face real barriers: school fees, learning materials, unstable support, limited mentorship, lack of exposure, and uncertainty about the future.
The Eli Adewole Foundation Education Support programme exists to help reduce those barriers for selected students and learners who show need, seriousness, and a willingness to move forward.
The goal is not only to help students remain in school. It is to help them become prepared, confident, employable, skilled, and ready to contribute meaningfully to their communities.
For learners who need a bridge between ambition and access.
Education support is for young people who are serious about learning and need practical help to keep moving.
Students with financial need
Young people who need support with fees, learning materials, or education-related costs.
Committed learners
Learners who show seriousness, discipline, consistency, and desire to complete their education pathway.
Skills-focused youth
Young people who need both education support and employability pathways through skills acquisition.
Emerging leaders
Students and young people with leadership promise who need guidance, support, and opportunity.
A structured pathway from need to learning progress.
EAF uses a thoughtful support model to help selected students receive meaningful assistance while encouraging responsibility and accountability.
Practical help for real education barriers.
Support may vary based on available funding, applicant need, programme priorities, and foundation review.
Selected applicants may receive support toward school fees, tuition, or approved education-related costs.
Support may include books, learning resources, supplies, or other materials needed for academic progress.
Students may be connected to skills acquisition training that improves employability and income readiness.
Students may receive guidance on discipline, planning, confidence, education direction, and future opportunities.
Education support should prepare young people for life after school.
EAF believes education is strongest when it is connected to employability, confidence, practical skills, and future readiness.
That is why students may also be encouraged to participate in mentorship, skills acquisition training, entrepreneurship exposure, and workplace-readiness opportunities.
- Digital skills and practical technology exposure
- Career readiness, communication, and workplace discipline
- Vocational or marketable skills pathways where available
- Mentorship for education, career, and leadership growth
- Encouragement toward self-reliance and long-term stability

Your support can help a student keep going.
Donors and partners help expand the education support fund, provide learning materials, sponsor students, support digital access, and strengthen the foundation’s ability to serve more young people.
When a student receives support at the right time, the impact can extend beyond the classroom into family stability, employability, confidence, and long-term opportunity.
You can support students with more than money.
Volunteers and mentors can help with student outreach, application review, learning encouragement, mentorship, career guidance, skills training support, event support, and follow-up.
Your experience, time, and encouragement can help a young person feel seen, supported, and prepared to move forward.
Help a student stay in school and prepare for the future.
