In 2017, prompted by requests from friends and acquaintances, Olubunmi Fajuyigbe designed shelearnshere.com as a blog where her friends and social media followers could get access to information and upcoming business events, funding, and other opportunities.
She subsequently started sharing business and digital skills tips, tutorials, and advice gathered through her few years as a business owner. She also invited friends to share their experiences too.
That same year, as a CSR project under her business, MF8 wellness and events, she formed a small team of volunteers for She Learns Here and started organizing training programs in business and digital skills, both virtually and physically.
She Learns Here was subsequently registered as a non-governmental organization in July 2019 with a board of trustees with diverse skills and combined experience of about 60 years.
