Empowerment Initiative

Providing a Shield in Our Community

Special Needs in Africa

Founded under a new name in 2023, SCEI or Shield City Empowerment Initiative is a non-profit organization in Kano, Nigeria. We provide hope for families of children with special needs by providing personalized tutoring and physical therapy. These services are freely provided to any of the needy families who have children with different disabilities. Besides helping children with special needs, we also run a football (soccer) club for young men in the different communities around Kano State. SCEI helps them to prosper both on and off the football pitch with free computer courses and start-up funds to help them run their own unique small businesses.
