The Candid Brothers Association of Nigeria (CABAN) has made a significant impact on rural communities by hosting an education outreach program aimed at addressing the challenges of educational inequality. The outreach on December 6th 2024 in Imo State, Nigeria provided essential learning materials, financial support, and much-needed encouragement to students and educators in underserved areas.
“We understand the importance of education and knowledge,” said CABAN President Bethel Nzeji during the event. “This outreach is about giving renewed hope to parents and children who lack access to basic learning tools. Every child deserves the opportunity to dream big and achieve their full potential.”
The program benefitted 500 children, who received backpacks filled with books, stationery, and water bottles. Some students were also awarded cash prizes in recognition of their dedication and academic excellence. The association extended its generosity to school staff members as well, providing cash gifts to acknowledge their commitment to the children’s welfare. The day’s activities included engaging quizzes, where students competed for prizes in a lively and motivating environment.
The outreach is the latest in a series of impactful initiatives by CABAN, which has a strong history of community service. Previous efforts include paying hospital bills for those in need, providing financial aid to widows, and supporting orphans at the Nigerian Red Cross Orphanage.
Reflecting on the success of the event, CABAN Vice President Vincent Amakor
reaffirmed the association’s commitment to driving positive change in society. “Improving the quality of life and education for children in rural communities is essential,” the group stated. “Education is the key to shaping upright citizens and creating a better tomorrow for our nation.”
CABAN’s recent outreach serves as a testament to the transformative power of unity and dedication, providing hope and progress to communities in need during challenging times.
