Rotary Club of Abuja, Ministers Hill, has sponsored the registration of 20 less privileged pupils of LEA Primary School, Jahi 2 of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) who were roaming about during school hours due to inability to meet their educational needs.
The president of the club, Rotarian Daniel Etameta said it was highly imperative to bring succour to these less privileged pupils considering the importance of children’s education to the society and national development, as the quality of tomorrow’s society is a function of the quality of education the children receive today.
Etameta said the Rotary Club of Abuja Minister Hill resolved to sponsor the registration of the pupils who were hungry for education but due to circumstances of life could not register in school. They were provided with uniform and sportswear, writing materials and school sandals, while their PTA levies was also paid. He added that all these are to restore hope and ensure brighter future for these children.
While acknowledging Rotarians for their incredible generosity, he said the “Back to School Project” has left no detail unaddressed to ensure that these students were fully prepared for their educational journey.
“Our Rotarians, who had worked tirelessly on this project, played an indispensable role in bringing this vision to life. Their unwavering dedication, countless hours of hard work, and commitment have turned the dream of these 20 students into a reality”.
Their service above self is truly inspiring,” he said.
Etameta also thanked all the donors for their donations and support towards the project, especially the Skld Integrated Services, Ivyline Care Foundation, Catherine Adeh Foundation and others whose unwavering commitment to education and support for the project has been instrumental to the actualisation of this life transforming project.
