In a bid to enhance the learning environment and support educational infrastructure, the TORQ Foundation recently conducted an impactful outreach program at GGSC. The foundation provided the school with essential educational materials, including 4000 exercise books, 2000 pens, and complete furnishing for the computer room, facilitating a conducive learning space for 40 students.

The initiative aimed to address critical resource deficiencies and create an enabling environment that fosters learning and growth among students.

Mrs. Hajia Sadia, the esteemed principal of GGSC, expressed her heartfelt appreciation for the TORQ Foundation’s generosity. She emphasized the vital role such initiatives play in enhancing the educational landscape and called for continued collaboration between the public and private sectors to ensure quality education delivery. “Initiatives such as this are very important to the development of education in the state. Government and private partnerships are key to delivering quality education. And guess who gets to be better off from such a partnership? The nation,” remarked Mrs. Hajia Sadia.

Mr. Alhassan, the Vice-Principal (Academics), echoed her sentiments, highlighting the positive impact the donation would have on student attendance and enthusiasm for learning. “With this development in the school, more students will be encouraged to be present at school. That is why the school management and community are really happy about this donation from the TORQ Foundation,” he enthusiastically stated.
