The Whole Story
Africa is a continent that is no stranger to strife, often political in nature. Many of our students in the past have shared their stories, with the common denominator being emigration driven by push factors such as violent struggles or long-term depressed industries.
Axcelero has begun expanding its initiative into Africa through Nigeria and Kenya to begin with. In both of these countries, there is a large community of people aspiring to emigrate, seeking better opportunities abroad. Some of these individuals end up in the United States, and almost all of them are lost as to where their educational and career journey will lead them.
With mentorship and educational opportunities, we have helped people attain scholarship resources which they desperately require to remain in the country, but have no knowledge as to attaining them. Axcelero will continue to help individuals pursue these opportunities, and with your help, we can provide information and assistance to a larger audience leading to less confusion upon arrival.
The transgenerational education barrier will not fall on its own. It must be broken.
