Voices from Our Community
"Before GMI came to our community, I had no source of income. The tailoring training and the micro-grant I received changed everything. Today I run my own shop and employ three other women. My children are in school and I can pay their fees myself. GMI did not just give me money — they gave me dignity."
Hajiya Fatima Abdullahi
Beneficiary, Women Empowerment Program — Lafia LGA
"I was a graduate sitting at home for two years with no job. GMI enrolled me in their digital skills program and within three months I had learned graphic design and digital marketing. I now run a small design studio and earn more than most of my peers who went straight into employment. I am grateful every single day."
Ibrahim Musa Tanko
Graduate, Youth Digital Skills Program — Keffi LGA
"Without GMI's scholarship I would have dropped out of secondary school when my father lost his job. They paid my fees, gave me books, and even provided a mentor who guided my studies. I am now in my final year at university studying Computer Science. I plan to give back to my community the way GMI gave to me."
