The joy; as that of a very ill patient on checkup appointment who suddenly receives the news that his tumor vanished without a trace. That’s a miracle!
Another miracle? Is what awaits Mummy Olayemi,
Iya Joy, Mummy Razaq, Mama Kehinde and co when they discover the school fees of their children have been paid fully when they resume. When in fact, the headmistress had promised not to allow their children into the school if they come without money cum this term. For them, resumption is a freight without hope. (I hope they’ll try not to cry at this realization).
Meeting with the school headmistress, who presented the list of students who were keen on learning but are financially constrained to KOA Education Foundation. She narrated amidst unmasked awe for this pleasant surprise that these sets of pupils were good academically but lack almost all the enablers of effective learning. She explained how these set of pupils and some more would manage exercise notes, wouldn’t even have textbook and would usually be sent home for unpaid school fees, even for the meagre four thousand naira the school charges. She also added her concerned empathy for the living condition of the parents but had reached a threshold on the detriment the unpaid funds were bringing her school; which of course, has to be sustained through teachers and other needs.
Thankfully, some of these kids would now be taken up to be supported in school properly through sponsorship and also be monitored. Ignorance, juvenile exploitation and loafing is subtracted in our society.
And as we subtly rekindle humanity and selflessness and hope in the hearts of the recipients of this sponsorship and the society at large, we want YOU to be a part of this good cause by sharing this message and importantly helping to sponsor a child or provide back to school materials like stationary, uniform, bags etc for them by donating to our account details below.

Giving spurs a chain of positive reactions that comes back to you magnificently; Like Dominos. May your generations reap it.
And That thing that leaps your heart in fear of how you’ll got about it; I pray that God take charge of it and surprises you with an epiphany very soon as Mama Olayemi and co!
