In a bold step towards sustainability and digital skills empowerment, Hydrogen Payment Services Company Limited (Hydrogen), in collaboration with the Lagos State Ministry of Education, Education District II, has donated a 5KVA solar-powered inverter system to Ikosi Senior High School, Ketu.
This innovative initiative provides a clean, renewable energy source dedicated to ensuring sustainable access to clean water while reducing reliance on non-renewable energy.
In line with its commitment to enhancing learning environments, Hydrogen has also renovated the school’s water outlet area, improving its aesthetics and hygiene. Taking its support a step further, the dedicated Hydrogen donated purchased textbooks to the school library, ensuring they have the academic resources needed for a well-rounded education.
Beyond these vital infrastructure and educational enhancements, Hydrogen is invested in the future of the students by equipping them with essential digital skills to thrive in a rapidly evolving world. Through expert-led, interactive sessions, students were introduced to key tech-driven career paths, including cybersecurity, data analytics, software development, payment technology, product management & design, sales & business development, customer experience, digital marketing, and project management.
