"She taught me that the true measure of a person is in how they treat those who can offer them nothing in return. I couldn’t think of a better way to honour her memory than by spreading love and joy to those who need it most. It’s what she would have wanted.”

He shared with Legit.ng that knowing his modest income as a corps member, he reached out to friends, family, and supporters to raise funds while explaining his vision of giving back to an often-overlooked community. He got donations, including food items, school supplies, and even funds to purchase assistive devices for the students.
