At a glance
Immediate · $3,000 for flights
Full goal $7,500 · by September 2026
First: cover flights — Kenya in September, Nigeria in October — so the teaching can happen in person.
Then: Starlink for the room, Claude for a fellowship of 12, and a two-day intensive for 120 — breakfast, lunch, power, and AV. Venue is free.
Why I’m going
I was born in Nigeria and grew up in the United States. I’ve played collegiate football, built a startup, traded professionally — and more. After every accomplishment, I keep coming back to the same thought: there are so many more of me back home. Students just as capable, who never had the same access to education and technology.
Charity that only buys food and clothes can meet a moment. Teaching people skills the world actually needs can change a future.
Right now, that skill is building with AI. Starlink carries a two-day intensive for 120. Claude Pro and three months on that connection go to a fellowship of 12 — because meaningful skill takes 8–12 weeks.
The belief
The students are already there. The gifting is already there. What we bring is the gospel, the teaching, and the tools — then we get out of the way.
