Who We Are?

We Support

At OpenFees, our primary mission is to help children overcome the financial obstacles that prevent them from accessing quality basic education. We understand that education is a key driver of personal and societal growth and we're dedicated to making it accessible to every child, regardless of their economic background. By providing the necessary resources and support, we help students stay in school, excel in their studies, and build a foundation for a brighter future.

We Connect

Our innovative platform serves as a bridge between generous donors and students in need. We connect individuals and organisations willing to make a difference with those who need financial assistance to pursue their educational goals. Through OpenFees, donors can directly see the impact of their contributions, fostering a sense of global community and shared purpose. This connection not only provides financial support but also inspires hope and motivation in the students we serve.

We Donate

At OpenFees, we don’t just facilitate donations; we actively contribute to the cause. Our team is committed to donating time, expertise, and resources to ensure the success of our mission. We work closely with schools, communities, policy makers and other stakeholders to identify the most pressing needs and allocate funds effectively. By donating our efforts alongside our donors, we ensure that every contribution goes further, making a significant and lasting impact on the lives of children in Nigeria and  worldwide.

Our Core Beliefs

Building a world where children are not deprived of basic education as a result of their inability to pay fees.

Growth and Learning

Embracing continuous improvement by developing skills, gaining knowledge from experience and viewing challenges as an opportunity to improve. We take learning seriously as we are more interested in effective and human centered solutions that supports basic education financing in Nigeria. At OpenFees, we do not use a one size fits all approach but focus on what works.

OpenFees most important focus is access for every child. We are sold out to communicating openly about our goals, decisions and results while making steady, measurable improvements and change overtime rather than relying on sudden large changes.​
