I used to hate speaking in public. After Nike’s training, I gave a speech at my school assembly, and even got a standing ovation!

I’ve seen such a huge change in my daughter since joining Speak Up! She’s more confident, expressive, and focused. She now speaks up respectfully at home and takes initiative with her schoolwork. I can’t thank Nike and the team enough for helping her shine.

Jordan

Grade 10

"

I used to get nervous just thinking about speaking in front of people. Through Speak Up, I learned practical tools to manage my fear and actually enjoy sharing my ideas. Now, I’m preparing to represent my school in a debate!

"

Amira

Grade 9 Student

"

Before joining Speak Up, I was so shy and could barely introduce myself in front of a group. Now, I can confidently share my ideas, lead class discussions, and even volunteer to speak at school events! This program helped me find my voice and believe in myself.”

Speak Up isn’t just another youth program, it’s a movement! Our students have become more self-aware, responsible, and articulate. They’re not just learning how to speak; they’re learning how to lead.
