Before

Amaka finished secondary school in Kaduna with good results but no plan. Her family could not pay university fees, and she stopped talking about the future.

Turning point

At a Life Direction Clinic, a mentor helped her compare routes and showed her the NELFUND student loan. She joined the CARE HUB to keep asking questions.

Now

Amaka is studying at a polytechnic with a student loan, and helps younger students in her area apply.
