For the second year, Grooming Endowment Trust (GET) has continued to support teachers through its Teachers Appreciation Program.
After a call for applications, several reviews and interview processes by a qualified panel, 12 teachers across the country were each awarded N200,000 in the grant.
GETAP endowment grants aims to strengthen the education sector and uplift those at the heart of learning. The program seeks to recognise the dedication and impact of teachers working in under-resourced communities and provide them with much-needed financial relief and empowerment.
The support is designed to ease personal and professional challenges, helping teachers focus on what they do best—shaping the future.
