Joy Foundation has played significant roles in helping to make education better in several rural communities through donating educational materials like textbooks, exercise books, chalks, pens and pencils among others.

The foundation also goes round giving lectures to young school children on things that can make them end up on the streets like teenage pregnancy.

The foundation seeks to make this educational tour her official project towards reducing streetism in our cities in addition to her premier initiative of adopting orphans and street children and building communities for the homeless.

Having gone to few deprived communities and schools to find out the real needs of school children and conditions affecting smooth and quality education in this communities, the foundation has identified the need to provide school uniforms, exercise books, chalks, pens and pencils and extra-curricular items like footballs and other sport items to these schools. This is because in some of these communities, some school children do not go to school because of the lack of these items.

The nationwide tour is partnered by JJA Pathfinders, Empire FM, TV3, and Radio Premier.
