In a concerted effort to impact their host communities, ALX, Africa’s leading tech accelerator, embarked on a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative to enrich the lives of people in low-income communities across nine states in Nigeria.

The exercise saw ALX Learners and Fellows (graduates), actively engaged in various uplifting activities centered around three key activities: food relief, education and tutoring, and orphanage visits.

ALX Community members in Abuja and Anambra State embarked on educational outreaches to secondary schools and universities. In contrast, members in Lagos, Enugu, Kaduna, Rivers, Oyo, and Imo states provided food relief.

Speaking at the food relief exercise at the Ilaje community in Costain,

Lagos State, the Country Operations Manager at ALX Nigeria, Helen

Eboagwu, highlighted the significance of the initiative, stating, “At ALX, we believe that our mission goes beyond equipping young people with the skills for a successful career in tech. We are deeply passionate about the people and communities that host us. This initiative shows our commitment to giving back and making a tangible difference in the lives of those around us.”
