Mentorship Program for Secondary Students in Ajegunle, Popular Slum in Lagos
Partnership and collaboration is key to ensuring sustainable development and to scale.
Today, we took another step towards ensuring that young people in underserved communities have access to mentorship and counselling.
Tripple-B Leadership Academy (TBLA) in collaboration with Kayfactor Leadership and Career Academy organized a mentorship program for Ajeromi Secondary School Students, Ajegunle.
We had a General Session, where our facilitators talked about Personal leadership which includes developing a vision and finding out your uniqueness in today's world. One major point the facilitator made was you have two things that everybody has "Time and Talent and you are the one to decide how you want to use it."
We also had a session on Character Education.Character determine success. Character is who we really are, even when no one is watching. Having "Good character" means doing the right thing just because it is right to do what is right. Character is the stable and distinctive qualities built into an individual's life which determine his or her response regardless of circumstances. " For example, a person in with a strong character quality of truthfulness is much more likely to accurately report the facts in a given situation than a person who tends to be characterized by deceptiveness. Someone who has the character traits of alertness will be more likely to be a better, safer driver than a person who does not see or recognize the potential dangers around him (Carelessness). A person with the character quality of tolerance will be more accepting of others - less prejudice.
After the general, session, we had a break out sessions and each group were attached with a mentor, who guide students to help understanding their needs better.
Ultimately, we were supported by Dreams from the Slums. They provided us with Educational Materials. Thank you!
Thank you @TBLA for the Partnership and Dreams from the Slums for the supports.
We are grateful.
KLCA...liberating the leader in you.
