The Journey So Far
From our early school outreaches in Ghana to our growing impact in Uganda, the story continues to prove that with faith, focus, and purpose, one small seed of hope can transform lives across nations.
2021
Mentorship Impact Experience
We offered a mentorship program that connected young individuals with experienced professionals in their chosen fields. The goal was to ensure that students, having received proper guidance and insights, transition smoothly into the professional world and thrive as early-career professionals.
2025
Living Hope Christian High School
This wasn’t just a school visit — it was a heartfelt mission to empower, encourage, and elevate the minds of young students. Alongside some amazing friends and team members, we had the privilege of engaging these bright minds through career & personal counselling.
How it all began...
Hephzy Scholars Counselling Foundation (HSCF) was born in 2017 from a place of humility, faith, and hope.
At just 17, I knew what it felt like to wonder if my dreams would ever come true, having grown up in a modest rural community in Abuja, Nigeria, surrounded by resilience but facing limitations.
During a gap year, volunteering at a local community school opened my eyes to how many young people faced the same fears I once did.
Today, as a Software Engineer, the burden to give back remains constant. That passion became a calling—a desire to create a structured system of hope, mentorship, and opportunity for others like me.
