Under the R.E.A.C.H Project, We have the Project S.E.E.K(Searching Earnestly for Education and Knowledge).  The SEEK project is education driven and aimed @ reviving our reading culture @ all levels
 

More About S.E.E.K
The S.E.E.K project is aimed at encouraging our students to read as there is no other path to success except by reading. It is sad that most secondary school graduates can hardly spell their names, as they opt for miracle centres. The certificates been issued are worth no more than the pieces of paper it's been printed on.

The aim of S.E.E.K is to distribute at least 20,000 copies of the book FREE OF CHARGE to secondary schools students btw SS 1 and SS 3. In a two (2) day event which will also include a workshop.

S.E.E.K took off on the 27th of March 2013 at St Joseph Secondary School Makurdi.
It was a hugely successful outing as we got a very warm reception from the Staff and Students of the school.

I spoke to the students on the importance of reading and gave them tips on how they could excel better in their academics. Mr Julius Atorough ( of the Julius Atorough Foundation) who supported the event also spoke to them on the value of hard work pledging the sum of
20000 for the overall best student
20000 for the overall best behaved student
15000 each for the best in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English and Economics. This would indeed serve as a great motivation to the students. We distributed copies of the book and I  prayed with them and refreshments were served.
