In giving back, the Fountain School (Primary) alumni have promised to redesign and equip the school’s ICT laboratory, with N15 million, which they expect to come from donations from the alumni members.
This promise was made during the Fountain School 50th Alumni Reunion Gala/Awards event at their campus in Surulere, Lagos, which brought a combination of “ancestors, mini ancestors, elders, big brothers and sisters, siblings, JJCs, and baby set” from across the world recently.
According to Mr. Soji Oluwole, class of 1980, a team member coordinating the event, the project will be funded via voluntary donations.
