Empower Nkporo Digital Leap

Help Us Build a Technology Learning Hub for Nkporo youth.

Nkporo is a resilient rural community nestled in Abia State, Nigeria—a place full of potential but underserved when it comes to access to the tools and opportunities young people need for sustainable growth. Despite development efforts, the community continues to receive limited attention from the government in areas critical to development, such as youth development and empowerment, access to quality healthcare, educational advancement, and economic opportunities.

But, in NDU-USA, we believe that we can trigger change from within—and we need your help.

The Nkporo National Development Union (NDU-USA) is launching a bold and transformative initiative: the Nkporo Digital Literacy Leap Project—a vision to establish a Technology Learning Hub in the heart of the community. This hub will serve as:

A training center for young people to gain critical digital skills—from basic computer literacy to coding, design, and data management.

A community access point for online learning, where students and lifelong learners can connect to educational resources across sectors, from health and agriculture to entrepreneurship and civic education.

A multipurpose space to support community development efforts, host workshops, and drive innovation for local challenges.

We are seeking funding, partnerships, donors, and supporters who believe in bridging the digital divide and unlocking the potential of young people in rural communities like Nkporo.

Why This Matters:

Access to Opportunities: About 70% of young people living in the community do not have access to reliable electricity, internet, or computer wares for learning to catch up with innovative trends that match modern opportunities. Only 1 in 100 youths residing in Nkporo have digital skills for modern jobs, and without connectivity, these youths will never match their talents to prevailing opportunities.

Youth Empowerment: Over 60% of Nkporo’s population is under the age of 30. Most lack access to digital education or meaningful employment opportunities.

Community Resilience: The hub will serve as a platform for knowledge sharing, skill-building, and collective community problem-solving.

Sustainable Development: Digital literacy is no longer optional—it's essential. Giving rural youths these tools can break cycles of poverty and open doors to global opportunities.

How You Can Help: Donate to support the setup of the hub—computers, internet, solar power, training programs, and materials.

Sponsor a youth to go through the digital skills training program by equipping them with computer hardware such as laptops. Partner with us to provide mentorship, curriculum content, or internship opportunities.
