Education is important for sustainable development and for eradicating poverty and hunger in rural areas. IAMME is a project ( founded by Ada Emihe and Nkem Emihe in New York City) striving to promote life and education in Nigeria. It is an organization that hopes to bring privileged Nigerian youths together to promote the future of our not so privileged children and the future of our nation.

Nigeria does not need more aid. What we need is proper education, and to provide opportunities for our youths and leaders of tomorrow.  In this light, IAMME is running a creative campaign, where they will feature Nigerian Youth in thousands of photographs; they have titled this project FACES : A Photograph for Education. According to Ada Emihe “We are not collecting any form of monetary donations from anyone right now, we are just focused on starting the movement”. Future projects will include awarding scholarships, establishing libraries etc. Join this movement and participate in their first event, which is the annual book drive. The annual book drive is an attempt to gather quality educational reading materials which they hope to donate to a school in Nigeria.
