The Rotary Club of Aso-Golf Abuja made a significant impact today by visiting Model Secondary School Maitama to support ten indigent students with their 2025 WAEC/NECO fees. This initiative is a testament to the club’s commitment to education and community service, demonstrating how collective efforts can change lives and empower the youth.
During the visit, Rtn Liz Ulumaranma, the Club President, expressed her gratitude, stating, “We believe that education is a right, not a privilege. Supporting these students is our way of investing in their future.” The club donated a substantial amount of money, underscoring their dedication to ensuring that financial constraints do not hinder the educational aspirations of deserving students.
The event also featured remarks from PAG Chike Mbonu, the Zonal Coordinator, who emphasized the importance of community involvement in educational initiatives. He remarked, “It is our responsibility to uplift those in need. By providing support to these students, we are not just helping them academically; we are also nurturing future leaders of our society.”
Rtn Bubu Makari and Rtn. Dr. Emem Aniekanabasi Alban, a multiple Paul Harris Fellow of the Rotary Club, also played crucial roles in this initiative. Alban, who was born on November 19, 1984, in Lagos Mainland, has a strong educational background with a BSc in Brewing Science and Technology and an MSc in Crop Science. She is the founder of Emani Farms Giant Ltd., specializing in livestock feed production and hydroponics crop production. Her efforts also extend to humanitarian work through the End Hunger Humanitarian Initiative, which supports vulnerable communities in Akwa Ibom State. Dr. Alban noted, “Every contribution counts. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of these young individuals and inspire them to reach their full potential.”
This donation aligns with the Rotary Club’s broader mission of promoting education and fostering community development. By investing in the education of these ten students, the Rotary Club of Aso-Golf Abuja is not only addressing immediate financial needs but also contributing to the long-term growth and development of the community.
