Milestone
11 July 2025

The atmosphere was filled with pride, joy, and excitement on 11th of July 2025 as Chiggy Nsofor Foundation (CNF) marked a significant milestone with the graduation of the first cohort of the Skill Scale-Up Program. Twenty-one students proudly crossed the threshold from training to opportunity, having completed 4 months of intensive and transformative learning experience across vital skill areas.
The graduating cohort were trained in Web Development, Digital Marketing, Photography and Videography, Catering, Hair Styling, Makeup Artistry, Content Creation, Entrepreneurship, and the Total Man Concept, a holistic curriculum designed to prepare young people not just for jobs, but for purpose-driven lives.
The graduation ceremony, held at Kurudu, Abuja, Nigeria, was a heartwarming celebration of growth, resilience, and the power of community. In attendance were families, supporters, and members of the CNF community, all gathered to celebrate the achievements of the graduates, affectionately called STARS.
In her address, Chiggy Nsofor, the visionary Founder and CEO of CNF, extended her heartfelt appreciation to everyone who contributed to making the day a success. She gave special recognition to the CNF Army, the Foundation's dedicated team, for their tireless efforts and unwavering commitment.
Speaking to the graduates, Chiggy offered both heartfelt congratulations and a charge for the road ahead. "Learning a skill is vital," she said, "but what is even more important is character. Character will sustain you. Remember, if you have a bad attitude, you can never make it. Where talent might get you to the door, character will keep you in the room."
