New Wave Nigeria relies heavily on it's gracious partners to continue making maximum positive impact in Nigeria and around the globe. Please join us in our village and help change our reality!
What?
New Wave Nigeria has a mission to solve the problem of reducing poverty, improving living conditions, and spreading awareness of the dire issues in not only Nigeria, but throughout the world. The organization looks to investigate the real life issues faced in these individual communities. The personal tie that its members have to Nigeria enhances their passion towards understanding the different problems, and thinking of the proper solutions/necessities needed to create sustainable communities in Nigeria.
Where?
Nigeria is the primary focus at the moment, but New Wave Nigeria hopes to expand to a global level once proper scale has been achieved
Why?
We want to create sustainable communities, provide the proper resources that empower individuals to have the opportunities needed to mold themselves into people that can reach their dreams and change the world. New Wave Nigeria differentiates itself through its strategic problem solving approach and the principle of “teaching a man how to fish” as opposed to quick fixes and plugging up holes. The organization is composed of individuals focused on the causes they are pursuing to amplify the voices of the unheard.
How?
-
In understanding the many needs across communities in Nigeria, NWN aims to leverage the Maslow Hierarchy of Needs model. What is it that every community needs to live a sustainable life? They need education, energy, access to water, internet, health, entertainment, access to faith, they need recreation (a way to physically stay healthy), access to a way to work, and ways to build financial wealth. NWN aims to be the intermediary to bridge these gaps and provide such services. NWN plans to give communities health scores based on these metrics. This will be an ongoing process with iterations of these metrics building upon each other. (Ex: No clean water within 5 miles will lead to a score of 70 and getting an accessible clean water source could raise the score for this community 7-10 basis points.). NWN differentiates itself by assessing based on these metrics, essentially identifying the weaknesses of these communities. What problem is most pressing? Rather than assuming that each community has the same need and projecting general solutions onto other communities, NWN attacks the root causes of each society’s specific demand. This creates a better focus in addition to much more intentional and efficient solutions to problems. NWN plans to leverage personal and professional connections in Nigeria and abroad to provide financial support to people groups that need it. Corporate partnerships are the second way in which NWN plans to build its platform. Corporate donors unlock the next level of NWN’s mission to reach a new domain of individuals, a new network of people, and a new wave of amelioration that will help drive these projects to completion and accomplish the goals that NWN has set for itself to assist others. NWN has secured a corporate partnership with Microsoft and is looking to expand into other spaces:
New Wave Nigeria has raised over $8,500 through fundraising and individual donors and has target contributions listed on the different project tabs. NWN plans to build an extensive portfolio of corporate partnerships to help raise the necessary financial capital to accomplish said goals.
When?
New Wave Nigeria’s mission is now. The organization has a wide range of projects that need the support of corporate partnerships today as these are problems and communities in need of help that cannot wait. NWN wants sponsors to join us in our mission to change the world. Anyone and everyone can be a part of the new wave and be a catalyst in making a real, lasting, positive impact.
