Expanding the Network

Inspired by the success of "Digital Bridges and Technological Advancement" and the growing impact of their first expansion project, Immaculate and Tamaraumiebi began to think about building a larger and wider range network of community centers. They envisioned a collaborative ecosystem where different community centers could share resources together and also share best practices, and even launch joint initiative programs.

"Imagine if the center in the next town could be able to collaborate with us on a very large-scale entrepreneurial workshop," Tamaraumiebi proposed during a strategy meeting. "We could pool our expertise and reach even more people."

Immaculate enthusiastically agreed with him. "And if we create a centralized platform for sharing stories and resources, we could amplify our collective impact. It's about creating a movement and securing their precious future, not just individual centers."

They began reaching out to other community leaders they had met through various conferences and networking events. Their vision was met with excitement and full of joy. Initial discussions led to the formation of a small informal network, united by a shared commitment to community empowerment. It was the first step towards a broader expansion for a sufficient networking and more impactful movement to achieve more success.
