The Ndokwa Association of Atlanta, USA, in collaboration with Paul Okoku's Greater Tomorrow Children Foundation (GTCF), has extended a generous gesture to indigent pupils of Igbe Ogume Primary School in Ndokwa West Local Government Area of Delta State.
The donation included 35 school kits, each containing a school uniform, four notebooks, six biros, six pencils, and four rulers. The team also provided refreshments of biscuits and soft drinks to the pupils, staff, and parents present during the ceremony.
The initiative was spearheaded by ex-international footballer Edema Fuludu, who was accompanied by former footballers Mobosa Brodericks, Chief Andrew Uti, and Pastor Peter Nwosa.
Speaking at the event, Edema Fuludu conveyed a message from Paul Okoku, highlighting his unwavering commitment to supporting vulnerable children in his community and across Nigeria.
Fuludu emphasized that Okoku's efforts go beyond the event, as he is championing a national initiative to draw attention to primary education and encourage others to support foundational learning institutions. He remarked, "Primary schools are the foundation of our academic success, yet they have been overlooked for too long."
The Headmistress of the school, Mrs. Veronica C. Olise, expressed profound gratitude for the support, noting that it brought immense relief to financially struggling pupils. She prayed for God’s blessings upon the donors and the foundation.
The PTA Chairman and attending parents echoed their appreciation, offering prayers for the donors and the team for their thoughtful intervention.
