The ACT SMART AND GREEN COMMUNITY FOUNDATION continues to make remarkable strides in its mission to build a safer and healthier society through sustained advocacy against drug abuse among young people. As part of its ongoing sensitization campaign, ASGCF successfully carried out educational outreach programs in several secondary schools across Port Harcourt, Rivers State. The campaign focused on enlightening students about the dangers of drug abuse, its long-term effects on individuals and society, and the importance of making responsible life choices. One of the major outreach events was held at University Demonstration Secondary School on Thursday, 16th May 2019. During the session, students were educated extensively on the harmful effects of drug abuse and the way forward in combating the growing menace among youths. Members of ASGCF delivered impactful lectures backed with robust knowledge and practical guidance. The program also featured a representative from the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency who provided professional insights on drug-related issues and answered several questions raised by students. The campaign further extended to University of Port Harcourt International Secondary School, where ASGCF continued its advocacy efforts with engaging discussions aimed at encouraging students to stay away from substance abuse and embrace positive values that contribute to nation-building. ASGCF also visited Enitonna High School, one of the oldest schools in Rivers State, where students received enlightening talks on the dangers associated with drug abuse and the importance of living responsibly. In continuation of the campaign, the foundation reached out to students of Government Comprehensive Secondary School with a strong message emphasizing that “in the real sense, we do not just abuse drugs, but drugs abuse us.” ASGCF remains committed to expanding this advocacy campaign to more schools and communities as part of its vision to structure a better society through awareness, education, and positive social impact. The foundation appreciates all participating schools, volunteers, stakeholders, and partners who continue to support this noble cause. Together, we can build a drug-free generation.
