The Ibidapo Lawal Foundation has donated books, academic materials and food items worth millions of naira to over 8000 students of Rochas Foundation Colleges.
The aim of the donation by Ibidapo Lawal Foundation is to help and support indigent children to have access to quality education and to demonstrate love and provide comfort to children of the less privileged.
It called on well-spirited individuals and organisations to show love and kindness to all children, especially, those from less privileged backgrounds in the country.
It also called on well-meaning Nigerians to sponsor and support at least a child of the poor to go to school, so as to reduce the rate of illiteracy and also build a better future for all children in the country, irrespective of their background.
The children, who were excited, entertained their guests, including their parents with debate, drama and dance.
Speaking at a special event organised for the students, recently, the Principal, Rochas Foundation College Owerri, Angela Nkaro, said the school was the first among the 13 colleges owned and funded by the Rochas Okoracha Foundation in all the geopolitical zones of the country.
Rochas Foundation, she explained is known for sharing love, putting smiles on faces, lifting the down-trodden and helping the poor.
The Principal therefore, applauded Ibidapo Lawal Foundation for supporting the school by donating books and other materials to aid the students.
