Established on the 6th of April, 2023, The APF is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to equipping economically disadvantaged youths through technology and science education.
Our vision is to inspire change by constructing an incubation center where the less privileged can receive adequate empowerment through science and technology education.
So far, we have designed a set of programs that includes coding bootcamps, after-school classes, mentorship sessions, and other initiatives to enable the young people in our care to build a strong foundation in these critical fields.
We are quite passionate about our mission, and we work tirelessly to leave a footprint in the lives of the people we serve.
If you would like to support our cause, please consider making a donation or volunteering your time.
Together, we can help these young people to exit the poverty cycle and attain a better future.
Goals
To help youths gain financial assistance and access to scholarship opportunities that will enable them to pursue technology-related courses in higher institutions.
To create awareness and promote interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) subjects amongst youths from various backgrounds.
To host classes, workshops, and other training in coding and computer programming specifically for the youth.
To create an environment that supports youths to meet industry professionals for networking and mentorship possibilities.
To provide practical firsthand training in marketable skills such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, data science, website development, cloud computing, cyber security, etc.
To encourage the youth to create and launch their own technology-based projects by the end of their learning.
To form a large community of youth who are passionate enough to learn about how technology, when combined with science, can potentially change the world.
To introduce an avenue for youths to participate in healthy, beneficial hackathons.
To promote inclusion and diversity in tech through education and outreaches.
To assist youths in gaining internship offers in any science field of their choice by providing adequate guidance and funding.
Vision
Ensure that materials, teachers, adequate information, capital, energy, time, and other tools are available to help youths start and complete their tech projects. Then, encourage parents to allow their children to take advantage of the provided resources.
Build a good school and classroom infrastructure that motivates interest in learning and chasing science and technology-based careers. We hope to expand these structures to better serve our goals and purpose in the future.
Develop simple course outlines and teaching techniques. This will enable the youths to grasp the basics of coding, data analysis, computer programming, and other advanced tech skills faster and better.
Form a network of thought leaders that will serve as an inspiration to young people. Thus, making them seek growth and development in science and technology.
Give youths the chance to set realistic goals in their chosen STEM fields. Then, guide them to take accurate steps towards achieving these goals.
Help the youths to develop a sense of confidence and self-worth needed to boldly push to excel in the digital age.
Embolden the youths to participate in hackathons. That way, they can acquire new technical skills, enhance their soft skills, meet industry professionals, and most importantly, feel a sense of accomplishment.
Promote the economic importance and value of education to individuals from under-resourced communities. This gives them the opportunity to improve their lives and that of their families.
Spark an inquisitive mindset in the youths by teaching them digital literacy as an essential tool for accessing useful information in today's world.
