November 29, 2007 by bunmi
As part of its philanthropic gestures towards promoting all levels of the education sector, one of the growing financial institutions in Nigeria, Access Bank, has empowered the University of Jos, Plateau state, with a Toyota Haice bus.
Executive Director of the Bank, Obeahon Ohiwerei, stated while presenting the bus to the Vice Chancellor of the institution, Professor Sonnie Gwanle that the bus provided is part of the bank’s commitment to creating a conducive learning atmosphere in the sector.
The VC, Professor Sonnie Gwanle, thanked the Bank’s management for the gift, noting that it would alleviate the transportation problem within the institution community. He then called on other corporate Organisations to emulate the Bank especially in the tertiary level where the nation’s hopes are produced.
It would be recalled that the bank has invested in its corporate social responsibility such as the 33units of Yamaha 3.8KV generators donated to boarding schools in Kano state, 1 million support for the little Saints Orphanage, 1 million donation to the Indo-Nigeria eye centre, N50 million sponsorship of the Nigeria-Lesotho Nation’s Cup qualifying match, N50 million donation to Lagos State Security Trust Fund, N5 million donation to team Nigeria, N5 million donation to an I-care, (I-care is an NGO that sees to the needs of children and widow).
The bank has also extended its social responsibility initiative to addressing the problems of the African continent.
