The Leventis Foundation: Empowering Nigerian Youths and Farmers

The Leventis Foundation (Nigeria) is a charitable organization that focuses on training young people and farmers in modern and sustainable agricultural practices, as well as the responsible use of natural resources.

Since 1987, the Foundation has been providing agricultural training to youths and farmers. Currently, they have established six agricultural training schools in different regions of Nigeria. These schools, located in the FCT, Osun, Kano, and Gombe states, are funded by both the Leventis Foundation and the respective State Governments.

The one-year training program covers various aspects of agriculture, agricultural value chains, and other farm-related businesses.
