“We are a group of individuals from central University, we contributed our small quota together just to support, we have promised them that we will come back in December to help them and organize a very big party for them as well, On behalf of the Orphans, Reverend Lawrence Lamina thanked the Old Students from Central University for their kind gesture.

“It’s always refreshing when somebody or a big institution comes to donate, but these are from individuals who have taken this as their assignment just to help us, all that we can say is that, may the good Lord Almighty bless them abundantly and help them in whatever they are doing so that they will come back with more, we always appeal to coperate bodies to come to our aid but if you people have done this all we can say is thank you”
