Student Entrepreneurship Support Program (SESP)
As university students, we engaged in various entrepreneurial activities so as to support ourselves financially in school, and today as graduates, our business was designed to empower students in entrepreneurship across African tertiary institutions with products and mentorship so they can keep improving their entrepreneurial skills while in School.
Our student entrepreneurship support program (SESP) helps our student partners generate more revenue for their upkeep in school while having a first hand entrepreneurial experience that will help them become more successful in entrepreneurship after graduation. And presently we are supporting such students across Northern and Southern Nigeria.
Unlike developed nations, most African countries don't offer student loans neither do they have enough job opportunities to support the youths, thereby leaving many of our young ones unable to enroll or support themselves financially in higher institution.
But there are few among us who has embraced entrepreneurship to support themselves in school.
Meet Simon, our program beneficiary.
Simon, a student of University of Benin, Edo state Nigeria, is a beacon of hope in his family. To achieve the dream of a better life, he took the bold step of training himself in higher institution.
He learnt some computer skills and started helping students with school projects and assignments in order to support himself financially as a student.
When he came in contact with imejer, he saw our SESP program as an opportunity through which he can generate more money for his upkeep in school.
Today, Simon is a preferred source in his neighborhood through which printer operators have easy access to good quality laser toner products we supply him. We are also happy to know that with the help of this opportunity, Simon is not just supporting himself better in school, but as well taking care of his younger brother.
Together, we achieve more.
Nothing is too small to make a difference, together we can support more students in entrepreneurship who are in need of businesses like ours across Africa.
