Stowe School and Woodhall Capital International Foundation have announced a new collaboration to strengthen their educational ties.
In a recent event held at the capital club in Lagos, Woodhall Capital International Foundation hosted Dr Anthony Wallersteiner, head of the Stowe Group, alongside his team from the prestigious Stowe School in the UK.
The event showcased the foundation’s work in Nigeria and introduced the Stowe team to local communities, Nigerian alumni, and prospective parents.
Stowe School, an esteemed British institution for students aged 13–18, is renowned for its educational excellence and commitment to nurturing students for future challenges.
With its mission to promote Nigeria globally, Woodhall Capital organised the event to highlight Nigeria’s investment potential and cultural richness.
Viavo Hunponu-Wusu, chairman of Woodhall Capital Foundation, emphasised the importance of such collaborations, noting that the partnership aligns with the foundation’s focus on education, which he describes as “key to addressing societal challenges.”
Wallersteiner spoke of the meaningful connection between UK charitable organisations and Nigerian philanthropists, stating, “It is exciting to see what can be achieved by working together to make Nigeria, and indeed the world, a better place.”
He shared insights into Stowe School’s initiatives, including educational programmes and humanitarian outreach in Maiduguri and Borno.
“We’ve been in Nigeria for over a week, feeding more than two thousand children and assisting with education programmes,” Wallersteiner noted the school’s efforts to educate teachers, support girls’ education, and aid vulnerable youth.
During their stay, the Stowe School team also visited the Soup Kitchen of Woodhall Capital International Foundation, collaborating with the Kanu Heart Foundation.
