The Sponsor-a-Needy-One (SNO) Initiative

ForthRight is delighted to introduce SNO, an initiative for helping bright kids in primary, secondary and tertiary schools from poor backgrounds get through major bottlenecks in their education.

How SNO works:

Step 1:
We identify intelligent children/young adults from poor backgrounds in financial difficulty in various schools and obtain a confirmation of previous academic performance to assess likelihood of success.

Step 2:
Identify the financial requirements for each child especially for major bottlenecks such as First School Leaving Certificate, WAEC, NECO and JAMB examinations including minimum textbooks required.

Step 3:
We advertise for sponsors for each child on this web site with a short academic profile, state/LGA of origin, and itemized cost of sponsorship; names will be excluded

Step 4:
If you choose to sponsor a particular child, you can either make a donation here or contact us if you wish to deal directly with the child in question or need further details.
 
Step 5:
Once we receive a definite evidence of commitment from a sponsor, the child is taken off our web site.

Step 6:
We DO NOT give cash directly to the SNO beneficiaries or their guardians; we rather use the funds donated by the sponsor to provide the items listed. Hence for example, we will buy and deliver textbooks required and actually register for the examinations listed, instead of giving the funds to the guardian

Step 7:
We send a thank you letter to the sponsor, along with item invoices and sometimes photographs

Step 8:
If the sponsor wishes we inform him/her of progress of the beneficiary from time to time.
