PUSH-55 challenge is set to kick-off in Nigeria and around the world on January 10, 2016.

Who We Are and What We Do:

The number, 55 represent the number of years since Nigeria’s independence in 1960.

The key objective of this campaign is #giving.

Our conscious spirit is underscored by our commitment to non-profit catering to causes such as homeless and underprivileged/disabled children and deprived widows.

It's been particularly difficult throughout the country and the government is doing its best to lay new foundations.

PUSH-55 is an independent program created to support government efforts.

And By donating toward this cause, you are helping to alleviate the hardships faced by these children, young adults and widows in remote and rural areas of Nigeria.

More importantly those affected by the Menace of Boko Haram in North East and those in IDPs will benefit from this project.

About PUSH-55 Challenge:

The Push-55 Challenge (“P-55”) is a voluntary activity undertaken to accomplish the charitable purposes of Eternal Legacy Foundation(“Association”)
By raising awareness of and funds for the fight against abandoned Nigerian children and widows.

We are raising funds to build 6 Vocational Career Training Schools and to setup a N2 billion Micro-Enterprise Endowment Fund for the deprived and oppressed Nigerian widows.

PUSH 55 aims to raise N7bn (Approximately, $35m USD).

Which will be use

• To build six (6) vocational training centres for the underprivileged children and young adults across Nigeria.

The training centres will be located in each of the geo-political zones (SS, SW, SE, NC, NE, NW).

These centres will train the children on various technical and non-technical trades to prepare them for tomorrow’s life.

• 25% of the fund raised will be set aside to create small-scale loan programs for rural and deprived widows in the country.
Dr #Okey Napoleon Iwunwa noted that both underprivileged children and widows in Nigeria are under great abuse and neglect.

The current system in the country has no enforceable protection law for them, thus leaving them with teary eyes all through the seasons.

These two classes are vulnerable to #sicknesses and #diseases, including #HIV/AIDS due to #poverty, lack of protection and care.

Eternal Legacy is inviting every citizen, including corporations, media houses all over the world and in Nigeria, Nigerian celebrities and the youths to get involved in this campaign for donation.

Details on how to participate is on the website, www.push55.org.

There are over 190 million people in Nigeria. Rather than wait for the government to materialize transformation in our society, everyone can add weight to lift Nigeria higher by being a proactive participant.

These forgotten and underserved children need our massive support. If 5 million Nigerians donate N1,500 (each person), we will raise over N7bn.

This is a realistic figure. Truth is, ‘no amount is too small, and no amount is too big to save a life’.

The children are our responsibilities. If we continue to neglect them, they may grow up to become public nuisance, armed robbers or worse still, join terrorists groups against us, for abandoning them. Terror groups are looking for vulnerable youths to recruit.

In Nigeria today, there are over 11 million of these youths who either dropped out of school or have no parents to care for them.

Giving them a life of purpose is our primary goal.

PUSH-55 is on the way to make their dreams a reality.

This social mission to help communities is a core component of PUSH55 identity.

In association with Youth Bank International (Nig), and Olivia Children’s Foundation (Nig), Eternal Legacy Foundation/Napoleon Institute is therefore launching PUSH-55 as a fundraiser.

We want everyone to have fun and enjoy giving.
