Driving Innovation and shaping a better future.
Bamido Additive Educational Foundation was born out of a vision to provide access to advanced manufacturing education in Nigeria. Recognizing the limited opportunities for engineers and creatives to gain hands-on experience in additive manufacturing (3D printing and advanced fabrication techniques), we set out to bridge this gap.
Our journey started with a simple but powerful belief: Nigeria has the talent, but access to cutting-edge knowledge and technology has been a barrier. By providing free and structured training, we have empowered aspiring engineers, designers, and entrepreneurs to turn their ideas into reality.
From a small initiative, Bamido Additive Educational Foundation has grown into a community-driven platform, fostering innovation, research, and skill development. Today, we stand at the forefront of Nigeria’s push into global manufacturing technologies, creating a future where local talent competes on an international scale.
It all started with a passionate group of friends organizing a small food drive in their local community.
Our first major international project was launched—bringing clean, safe drinking water to villages in Africa.
Now, anyone can contribute to life-changing projects with just a click, expanding our reach to thousands of new donors.
To provide free and accessible training in additive manufacturing for Nigerian engineers and creatives, fostering innovation and empowering communities to drive Nigeria’s advancement in global manufacturing technologies.
We are committed to empowering vulnerable communities through effective disaster response, education, healthcare access, and sustainable development.
Empowering youth through education
Providing access to essential healthcare
