The Aboki Africa, founded by Cynthia E. Chisom, focuses on uplifting local leather artisans by upskilling them and providing access to markets for their shoe repair services. Cynthia, inspired by her experience abroad, aims to improve the livelihoods of these artisans in Nigeria.

Over the past five years, the initiative has positively impacted 47 artisans, significantly increasing their average monthly income from 10,000 to 80,000. This economic empowerment not only addresses poverty but also contributes to combating hunger, aligning with Sustainable Development Goals.
