Education and youth
From secondary-school leavers choosing a course to graduates looking for their first job, the Foundation helps young people of the Emirate make the next step with confidence.

What we do
Guidance, sponsorship and readiness for work
The Education Committee runs and hosts programmes that bridge the gaps young people face at each stage: career guidance for SS3 leavers navigating JAMB and admissions, facilitation of state sponsorships such as the Danmodi Students Care Foundation Year Programme for nursing and midwifery, and the Job Clinic, a free career-readiness workshop for graduates and early-career job seekers.
