This corporate philanthropy gesture forms part of the week-long activities marking the association’s Annual Reunion, even as it sets to hold its Grand finale at the Landmark Beach in Lagos on Saturday, 25th November, 2023.

A statement signed by Mr Lanre Oyegbola, the President of the association said that apart from being a gathering of old schoolmates, friends and a renewal of old acquaintances, the group had within the week been giving back to society by donating various items to orphanage homes and others.

According to him, there would also be a Jumat Prayers for the participants on Friday, while a thanksgiving service would be held on Sunday for all members.
“Overall, we also want to use this season to recalibrate for greater exploits, enhanced friendship and greater opportunities in our togetherness.”
He said: “This year, it has been a weeklong event that is culminating in a beachside event on Saturday, Jumat prayers on Friday and thanksgiving service on Sunday.
“This period has also been used to remember the less privileged in our society and reach out to our members’ immediate families who for one reason or the other are not within reach of their immediate families. Also, we use the season to remember the families of our deceased mates.
He recalled that the past editions of the reunion activities saw the set donating various gadgets, including multimedia equipment to the Department of Mass Communication, MAPOLY and other organisations within the country.
