Exactly one year ago, I completed a fundraising campaign to cover my programme fees at Future London Academy. I needed £8,000 in 30 days. I had raised £26,500 myself. Huge shoutouts to Adésóyè FourthCanvas and a community of people I will never forget came who through and closed the gap last minute. That moment changed everything. To every single person who donated from the largest contribution to the ones who gave what they could, please hear me when I say there was no small donation. Every one of them got me here. To everyone who shared the video, left a comment, sent a DM of encouragement, reposted without being asked, you carried this as much as anyone who gave money. I was selected for this programme, I sat in rooms with leaders from different countries and continents. I added the Nigerian and African perspective to conversations shaping the future of design leadership. I always knew there was more than being a local champion, but living it is something else entirely. I’m graduating in a few days. Full circle. Everything I’ve learned, I’m bringing home. This is what your belief became. Thank you. #8kin30days #30days2raise8k #fundraising #oneyearanniversary

You’ve probably heard, I graduated from Future London Academy’s Executive Program for Design Leaders on friday. The design MBA challenged everything I thought I knew. Before this, I thought a mainstream MBA was all I needed to fuel this insane amount of curiosity I daily brewed on what it meant to be a business-minded designer but after doing it, I realized it wasn’t. I could say beyond a doubt that this was all I needed to move to the next phase of my career. From the first day I stepped into the programme in London, which also happened to be my first time out of Nigeria, I knew I had met a new family. A family of teachers, delegates and staff who opened up their arms to me and never got tired of my questions 😀. The learnings, friends, family and experiences will stay with me forever. It felt like I had travelled to all 18 countries represented in my cohort, experiencing their world through their lenses. I wish I could go into all the stories, but not today 🫣. Thank you Ekaterina Solomeina, DLX Mohammed Saiful Hussain, DLX for this incredible and thoughtful design of the programme and for connecting me with a new international family. The future is much clearer, with a new level of audacity unlocked in me along with a new level of responsibility for being an internationally recognized design leader. I guess we could lose the ‘of London’ and embrace: Bolutife to the World 🚀 Bolutife shooting for the stars 🌠 Bolutife changing the world 🌎 A very big thank you to all my friends, community, and family who supported me with all they’ve got. This is a win for us all. Introducing, Bolutife Awakan, DLX #bolutifeoflondon #bolutifetotheworld #futurelondonacademy #designleaders

We’ve raised over 75% of the £35k tuition. But I’ll lose my spot if we don’t raise the final £6k in 14 days. This is hard to ask, but I need your help. And there’s not much time left. Last year, I was accepted into Future London Academy. One of the most respected design leadership programs in the world. I deferred my spot to raise the tuition fee of £35,000. Through savings, loans, and generous support, I’ve raised £29,000. And I’m grateful because we’ve made incredible progress. But now I’m just £6k away from securing my seat. If I miss the deadline, I lose the opportunity. But this isn’t just about me. This is about using global design education to create new possibilities for designers and creatives in Nigeria and Africa. I’ve always shared as I’ve learned, and this journey will be no different. So I need your support. I’m raising funds online, so everyone interested can support this cause. Here’s how you can help: 1/ Donate (any amount counts): • Nigerian: • International: • Local Transfer: A/C 0059957511 – Access Bank 2/ Connect me to someone who can help🙏🏽: Tag or share this with SUPREMOS 🤍🐘 THE KINE 🌕🖤 Femi Ote$ or anyone who might care. 3/ Repost with hashtag #30days2raise8k help me reach more people I believe this final stretch is possible with your help. Let’s finish strong. 🙏🏽 – Bolutife Awakan (Bolutife to the World 🌎) PS. Want the full story? Watch here:

😭😭😭 I have officially secured my spot at the Future London Academy Global Design Leaders program. (Future London Academy) From: "Hope to see you in London soon" in 2024 To: "Welcome, design leader 💛" in 2025 And that's all thanks to you all. When I started the fundraiser campaign on Saturday, April 26, 2025, I didn’t know what to expect. But I’m completely blown away by your kindness, generosity, and support over the past few weeks. Words can’t express how I feel. I’m deeply grateful to everyone who has donated, shared, or encouraged me. None of this success would be possible without you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you from the depths of my heart.
