Depending on the state, and location of volunteers, predicted budget will be shared before the trip.

What is the average duration of each trip ?

Each Trip is a minimum 0f 2-3 weeks due to the numbers of LGAs in each State.

But volunteers coming on board can decide to choose how many days they will like to spend on the trip.

What should be my expectations on these trips?

Fun, Adventures and life inspiring experiences.

This Movement is envisioned to b e interesting and life changing.

Also, to be honest there are some uncontrollable situations like; bad roads, inaccessible destinations and some unforeseen circumstances .

But all in all, we are going to be having so much fun.

How do you plan to execute the social work/communities service part of the project.

The plan is to explore first and identify problems and gather information / documents in videos, pictures either by interviewing the locals or communities members in the LGA after each state trip.

Then we can now bring it to the public; Individuals organizations, Non-governmental organizations that are capable, legible and willing to proffer solutions to their basic needs.

I was privileged to be part of the team in the Kwara state trip for the 774 project and it was an amazing experience.
Moving around, meeting people, seeing the culture, identifying the unique needs of different communities was a surreal experience.
If you have the opportunity to tag along, I would definitely recommend and if you can’t, supporting the movement would go a long way

Hello Toke,
How do I even start?
Firstly, thank you for taking me on that adventures as it was an eye opener. Sometimes I just look at the files from the trip, reminisce and smile. For the lack of better adjectives, the experience was incredibly amazing.
Love how I met and was introduced to the life and reality of the locals I met at every point. You know, I make scenarios in my head where I could have done more and I want to go back.
Again, thank you Toke ❤”

I was excited to be able to pertake in the 774 movement.
It was an eye opener for me. It was nothing like I’ve ever experienced before.
It was thrilling to be able to go to several locations in such such a limited time. My favorite part was uncovering unknown and hidden gems.
I’d always be passionate about tourism in Nigeria and this gave me a platform to have a hands on experience, see the problems and think outside the box to proffer solutions.
I’d always be grateful for the experience. I learnt a lot about people, places and even about myself
