ABOUT US
Mega Impact Foundation is a registered Non Profit and Non-Governmental organization in Nigeria (CAC20517). The Foundation was conceived and birthed on the 26th of July, 2014 in South Africa but was registered and began its operation in Nigeria on the 18th of November, 2016.

" ADOPT A TREE CAMPAIGN "
World Environment Day takes place on the 5th of June every year. It is the United Nations’ flagship day for promoting worldwide awareness and action for the environment. The theme for this year is ecosystem restoration and focuses on resetting our relation with nature.
This year we at Mega Impact Foundation are introducing our “Adopt A Tree Campaign” which is a School-to-School and virtual environmental education campaign designed to get young people energized about taking care of the Earth, protecting it as well as helping their community while learning about some of the most important issues in the 21st century as it affects environmental conservation. The idea is to get young people to plant trees in their schools and communities and nurture it till it grows.
