Ngoyeaa Back To School Foundation

Ngoyeaa is a word in the Mende language, a native dialect in Sierra Leone, that captures the essence of our humanity and compassion to others; I am who I am because of who we all are- it’s the Mende equivalent of the term “Ubuntu”. We provide financial aid and mentorship to talented underprivileged students in Aberdeen, Freetown, Sierra Leone. Help us to spread the flames of “Ngoyeaa” in our homeland through the power of education. Our mission is simple. We provide hardworking, deserving children with the resources and mentorship necessary to continue their education and unlock their full potential. We believe strongly in the power of mentorship to provide meaningful guidance, opportunity, and cultural exchange, and aim to leverage this resource for the benefit of our students and sponsors alike. In the end, we seek to inspire a new model of educational exchange that harnesses the power of the technological age to invest in the betterment of our future.
