Just ahead of their 10th anniversary celebration, MITDS has once again showcased its commitment to education by providing the school with an assortment of computers, marking their second contribution in just two months.
The atmosphere at Yikene Basic School was filled with gratitude as Headmaster Mr. Solomon George Gbenga received the computers. He expressed heartfelt thanks to Prof. David Millar and the entire MITDS team, acknowledging the significance of this donation. “These computers will significantly shape our pupils’ futures,” he remarked, clearly recognizing the transformative potential of technology in the lives of his students.
The donation aligns with MITDS’ corporate social responsibility initiative, which aims to uplift educational standards and enhance teaching and learning experiences within the community. Officials from MITDS emphasized their vision of equipping students with essential Information and Communication Technology (ICT) skills, ensuring they thrive in an increasingly digital world.
With the new computers, Yikene Basic School has ambitious plans to set up a dedicated computer lab, and they’ve extended an invitation to MITDS for the grand inauguration. Mr. Gbenga reiterated the critical role that technology plays in modern education, promising that the school would use this invaluable donation to benefit its students fully.
This act of generosity not only aims to enhance the pupils’ ICT skills but also seeks to bridge the digital divide, support quality education, and foster a generation equipped to navigate the complexities of the digital age.
As Yikene Basic School embarks on this exciting journey, the commitment of MITDS to community development shines brightly, empowering the next generation of leaders in the process.
