The Model: Walk us through a specific example of how your solution makes a difference; include your primary activities
The model is simple: In Nigeria where accessibility, planning and policies, information is very lacking or does not even exist. Using psu-nsap,(ncaa collegiate model) a USA based idea for school aged children. Just like the NCAA, introducing and grooming children at young age into sports and athletics in schools takes control of so many problems. The NCAA program has produce healthy living, a source for many college educated people, a source for employment and leadership. Our primary activities includes, all sports activities, basketball, soccer, tennis, hockey, vollyball, swimming, boxing and all other activities. Creative activities are very important because they help remain alert, they help in socializing, it helps open the doors for equal access to women and girls.providing education
The Marketplace: Who are your peers and competitors? Identify others also working to address the needs you are and what differentiates you from them. What challenges could these players pose to your success or growth?
There are really no competitors, rather we have other organizations who are interested in being part of global economic development and youth empowerment, which is what psu-nsap is all about. one of such is the Rosita Foundation(www.rositafoundation.org).PSU-NSAP= primary, secondary, university-national sports & athletics program. It is based in Nigeria and expanding into all African nations. We have an up-hill battle in the sense that we lack funds for a program of this magnitude.This is a one shop stop for providing education to those who wouldn't have been able to afford one. Also this provides access to women and girls. Our program is all about services and we are not worried about competitors, rather we welcome partners, we welcome funders, grants and donations.

Social Impact
Founding Story: We want to hear about your "Aha!" moment. Share the story of where and when the founder(s) saw this solution's potential to change the world.
The NCAA collegiate program is our model. The psu-nsap was created out of the epidemic life style the youths have gone into. Most of these youth are living a very transient existence. They have nothing permanent to show or give them real hope.
Please describe the goal of your initiative; outline what you are trying to achieve
Our passion and mission is to strenthen the hope of these young men and women and give them a real chance to lift them selves out of extreme poverty. Using sports and athletics, we will accomplish 99.99% of our goals. access to education, dropout prevention, women's empowerment, economic development and leadership qualities.
What has been the impact of your solution to date?
Our impact is growing and will improve drastically to nation-wide. It is a nation-wide schools program working hard to envelop Africa. Our only problem is funding. Africa has been way neglected in this area of using sports for philanthropy and social empowerment
What is your projected impact over the next five years?
