Slum2school Africa is a volunteer-driven non-profit organization founded in 2012 that provides grassroots, community-led education solutions for disadvantaged children in Africa. The organization operates in Nigeria, with a presence in Lagos, and works to improve learning outcomes through two main models: establishing solar-powered, eco-friendly ‘Green Academies’ in remote communities without schools, and strengthening existing public or community schools through infrastructure upgrades, teacher training, and digital learning tools.
The organization’s programs focus on access to quality education, learner well-being, youth skills, and education innovation. It partners with communities, governments, and the private sector to deliver holistic support, including scholarships, health services, and psychosocial care. Slum2school Africa describes itself as a tech-enabled organization that integrates sustainability into its operations, such as using rainwater harvesting and waste-to-biogas systems in its schools.
The organization hires for roles in program management and executive support, requiring experience in the non-profit or development sector. It also engages a global community of volunteers to support its mission of ending the education crisis in underserved regions.
